I love my country regardless of how many bad incidents keep happening on an
hourly basis. India is so rich in culture and heritage that every 20 km, you can
see something new among the inhabitants. Today is one of the most auspicious
occasions celebrated in most of the Northern region of India, Karvachauth. You
can say that, it's proof of a woman being happily married to her eternal
love, her husband. This is a rigorous fast where the women don't eat or drink
for the whole day till she sees the moon in the night. The moon is a reflection
of her husband's face and that's how the fast is said to be completed. In fact,
while keeping fast, they still keep on doing their daily activities, and it
still is a mystery to me that how can she do all the routine activities and not
have a single drop of water. I guess, this is no logic, but a commitment of
love and care of her love. Also, some men keeps fast showing
their love for their wives. My brother does that for his wife
When I was young, the 1st thing I did was to go to my mother, and see her mehndi on Karvachauth. It looked beautiful. She is a perfect example, as per me, of an ideal lady who is a perfect mother, wife, daughter, etc. I wish her a Happy Karvachauth, and told her to be happy and healthy and I'm definitely sure that I'm going to see a beautifully dressed up woman in an elegant saree in the evening.

Now, I myself observe this beautiful festival with full energy and a lot of love for Sahil.. I feel privileged to celebrate love in this way. I apply mehendi on one hand, and my husband tries to make the best design on my other hand (I almost cry, even after 6 years of my marriage when he does it). For me, Karvachauth reminds me of the love and devotion for my family. Most people still find it as a regressive festival, but it always gives me strength to be always there for my husband and his family. I have a beautiful sasuraal, and they keep my like a queen. When there is so much adoration and respect, well..., nirjal fast becomes a piece of cake
