Everyday Love: When Diwali becomes that much more special

Diwali

Each day, every festival, brings as many tales of everyday love, respect and camaraderie downing the shrill noise of hate. So it was this Diwali, October 24, Monday, when at 2 p.m. Facebook (FB) user Megha Joshi put up this simple post with photographs: “Two Muslim helper women go out and spend their hard-earned money on flowers and rangoli and make Laksmi feet on the door of their atheist employer, of their own volition, to remind her what a celebration truly is. Surprised and touched.”

Good news is the real news and it happens around us every day.

Happy Diwali!
