Happy Diwali! And best wishes to all !
A quick thing to mention people living across the globe and celebrating global cultures. Diwali is the festival of lights and celebrated by most Indians (mostly of the Hindu religion but others as well).
For those stuck at work on a weekday and missing out on the festive feel, always remember that its only the people you care about that actually matter and remembering memories you shared with them celebrating (past, present or future) is all that counts.
