It's been nearly two months since we've been back from India, and while I don't miss the smells or the mosquitoes, I do really miss the crazy beautiful festivals like Holi.
This video stole my breath away. As far as humankind goes, I think Holi is maybe the greatest celebration we've ever come up with. Have any of you ever been a part of any Holi celebrations?

I've never experienced Holi myself, but I love the idea of it. It seems so lighthearted and fun. :)

ReplyDeleteIncredible!
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing. I have bever heard of it but looks pretty interesting. I love seeing how other countries celebrate their holidays and life.
ReplyDeleteSuch a magnificent video, and celebration. I've never taken part in one, but I'd love to!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sight to see! I would have colorful snot for days ;)
ReplyDeleteHahahahah.
DeleteI NEED to go back to India to see this for myself - so, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think Holi is so beautiful. I have not participated in a celebration myself but my friend who was enchanted with the idea of celebrating the colors of spring made up her own celebration last year. She set up a picnic dinner in her living room for her and her husband and they ate under a rainbow night light and burned scented candles and incense. It was a simple way of acknowledging an occasion that she had not participated in before but really admired. I like the idea of doing something similar with my family with holidays that i did not grow up with but would like to acknowledge.
