DRESSED UP

When I was a little girl, my parents used to buy us new clothes each year on Diwali. This was the only time we (my brother and I) got new clothes apart from our respective birthdays. This was quiet unlike the

extravagance and materialism nowadays where children are flooded with gifts year round. So, whatever big or small gift we received on Diwali, it was happily cherished by us year long. Tania Khurana
