Hello friends , A Very Very Happy New Year to all of you!! Finally!! 2021 is here. Well,I hope that this year brings lots of joy and happiness in our lives.Last year which was 2020 locked us down in our homes away from all fun and enjoyment because of deadly corona virus spread all over the world.Friends, this year started on an excellent note with finally vaccine for this virus making it's way in the world.Now we can expect to get rid of this pandemic for good.
Change is already making it's way into our lives with people getting together for little celebrations like Christmas,New Year's and Lohri. Things are once again getting back to normal. Let's hope this year brings more opportunities for joy and happiness for the entire world.As they say "All world is one big family"वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम".So all members of family,the entire world should remain healthy and cheerful.
Friends,today is makar sankranti or uttarayan which is a festival dedicated to Sun.It marks the first day of the sun's transit into Makar rashi (Capricorn).From this day onward,it is believed days start getting longer.In my house we do a small puja and relish laddus made with sesame(til ke laddu)This festival is also celebrated as Bihu in Assam and Pongal in Tamil Nadu .
Friends, I didn't make a drawing for this occasion , however I am sharing picture of my Christmas tree instead that I decorated for Christmas (every year I put up my Christmas tree before Christmas and wrap it up after makar sankranti in order to enjoy Christmas,New Year,Lohri and Makar Sankranti)
So friends signing off this blog with a popular Marathi phrase"तिल गुड़ घ्य ,गोड गोड़ बोला"which means eat sweets made with sesame and jaggery and speak sweet or leave all the quarrels and grudges from the past behind and start afresh and anew , embracing forgiveness.
Happy Makar Sankranti
