Bhadrapada Shuddha Chaturthi (read on even if you can't comprehend the title :))

It is that time of the year again !!! Markets are bustling with all colours of flowers and all types of fruits. Shops stock up new range of clothing giving "upto" x % discounts (nice try!!!). Mom struggles the whole of previous fortnight getting stuff ready and one whole day making dishes that are going to make even kumbakarana start counting calories. Dad and kids if they leave from their "high-tech" (all they do is 1 + 1 = 2 which most of the times comes out 3 :P) work , hunt for new ways to decorate and fight over the size of the idol to buy. The day arrives with uncles , aunts and cousins dropping in. Nearly the only time you get to meet them in a year although they stay just 3 hours away(whoever called it global village :P). and the two days go like 2 seconds. You think of waking up early and finishing puja fast but it inevitably gets till 4 p m because you feel like doing that one abhisheka or sahasranama more afterall its just once a year. When all the creatures in your stomach have died you hog like crazy. By the time you finish you will have people visiting. Again the only time you catch up with old mates. and before you know it its the time to send the mother and the son away!!!:(( These are the moments that makes life worth living. This is the time you actually "LIVE".
