Hello lovely people,
I wasn't keeping well from past two days, so I couldn't write my diary posts. So let's start today,
Today is the most awaited Hartaleeka teej for which many Indian women were doing preparations, buying new clothes, and many other things. In this festival, you get so many new things but you also have to keep fasting the whole day without even drinking water.
I believe it's all about faith, and just one fasting is not going to affect your partner's life in any which way. It's a tradition that everybody is following in my house so I just did it. But I cheated a little bit and drank water and tea.
My belives are a little different, I believe we should be god loving not god-fearing. There is a thin line between them, most people do things because they fear God and think if they don't do things in a certain way, God is gonna punish them. That's fear.
God has better things to do, a whole universe to run. I am sure he is not gonna keep a check on how many Indian women drank water in the fast. Just worship with a whole and pure heart. Maybe I am wrong but this is what I believe.
The main motto of life should be, good deeds. No one should get hurt because of your selfish motives which most people fail to do as everybody has their personal reason to do things.
So I woke up late today and directly took shower, My maid did the cleaning and I watered my plants. After that, I had nothing to do, no morning tea, no breakfast. Just pass your time and make sure you are not hungry, and even if you are, pretend you are not.
Decorated the prayer area with banana and mango leaves
I did the decoration of my temple according to today's pooja. I used mango leaves, banana leaves and Scutch grass as they are believed to be auspicious.
I prepared coconut laddoo. It was instant Laddoo as I was saving my energy. So, I just mixed desiccated coconut with condensed milk and cardamom powder and it was ready. The taste was very good.

Then I got ready for Pooja. I sat in front of my dressing table and put my make up on, clad saree which I bought specially for today. Clicked so many pictures.
It was 7 'o'clock when I started Pooja. It took me almost an hour.
I was feeling so dizzy, I had a very bad headache, I already have a history of migraine so keeping these kinds of fasts are tough for me. I had no option but to take a tablet.
The day and headache passed and I took a breath of relief.

Yes, in truth everything is related to faith.
Just like we believe that we are taking medicines, we will be fine soon.
If we are doing yoga, then we will be healthy now.
Just like this , faith in God also works.
Everything is above belief, it is what we think.
It affects us the way we think.
This is my personal thought.
