On the occasion… of the national holiday Diwali
To be Celebrated on Saturday, November 14, 2020
Diwali is very important to all of us here in Guyana. This year it is being celebrated on Saturday, November 14.
It is a national holiday and as with most of these holidays that signify good triumphs over evil, Diwali is one such occasion.
So as we light our diyas, the symbolism of that is for us to use the light from the diya to banish the darkness in our life.
Some of us many have personal challenges, and hopefully, we can light that little flame that can meet those challenges successfully.
On a national scale, as a nation and as a people, we do have varying obstacles and challenges that prevent us from achieving prosperity.
Hopefully, on a day like Diwali, we can reflect on how we can be better as a people and how we can work together, so that we can enjoy the prosperity that this symbolic diya represents.
It is a symbol of how the goodness and the brightness can banish the darkness, so that our nation can prosper.
Happy Diwali to the Hindus in particular and indeed to all Guyanese as well.
