Diwali
We had a Diwali Assembly in FIS last week. The kids sang, they danced and they saw a movie... - the whole school(primary) watched. We struggled to make things happen, we smoothed over differences of opinion among parents, we struggled to get the kids practise the songs and mantras, we had to digest criticism.....yes, in a nutshell we sweated a lot.
Last night when this mother said,'I am so thankful to you guys - now K is so proud of his identity as an Indian - he sang Gayatri Mantra to my parents over phone and they cried as they heard him - they could not believe it - thanks so much!'
It makes it worth all that sweat and tears, it makes it worth the effort because of the kids.... Yes the reflections of those small little lamps in everyone's eyes makes it worth it.
