Community Beat: Festival of Colors
“Holi, the Indian celebration of colors, holds profound significance in a proud Indian’s life, blending cultural tales of righteousness from Prahlad and Holika with the timeless love of Krishna and Radha.
“Being away from family back in India and celebrating Holi with friends embodies the true spirit of this joyous festival. It reinforces the core message: richness lies in embracing messiness, just as we embrace the kaleidoscope of colors during the festivities.
“It’s a reminder that to truly experience the vibrancy of existence, one must be willing to immerse oneself fully, letting the colors of joy, love, and camaraderie paint their journey. Happy Holi!” – Dushyant Patel
