#StoriesAndLight @InjectiveIn Happy Choti Diwali! 🪔❤️ My favourite Diwali memory will always be the Diwali of my childhood. ❤️🪔 I still remember those days when Diwali meant something completely different. No expensive gifts, no fancy decorations, no social media stories. Just a freshly cleaned home, the smell of homemade sweets, colourful rangoli at the entrance, and the excitement of lighting the very first diya with my family. One memory that will always stay close to my heart is watching my father carefully light diyas around the house while my mother prepared sweets in the kitchen. I would run around with my little hands full of phuljhadis, waiting impatiently for everyone to come outside. But my favourite moment wasn't the fireworks. It was when all of us sat together after dinner, laughing, sharing sweets, and enjoying each other's company. For a few beautiful hours, nobody was worried about work, money, responsibilities, or tomorrow. Today, everything has changed. We have grown up, responsibilities have increased, and some familiar faces are no longer around the same festive table. Sometimes, I wish I could go back to those little moments, even if just for five minutes. Growing up taught me something beautiful: Diwali was never really about how brightly our homes were decorated. It was about the people who made them feel like home. This Choti Diwali, my wish is simple: May every home be filled with happiness, every family stay together, and nobody ever feel alone during a festival meant to spread light.
