" Festivals of South East Asia " by Anita Bose is a lively overview of thefastraditions and celebrations in this cultural mosaic. Detailed description and storytelling by Bose propels the reader to experience the different customs, rituals, and history that tell of festivals in countries like Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Malaysia. The writing is indeed quite enticing but without losing it into details when it goes to the fun of it. This is because festivals showcase deep-rooted beliefs, the spirit of community, and historical mellifluousness. Harmony, spirituality, and joy are all themes Bose conveys as contributing to the process of insulating celebration: people gathering, enjoying, and so forgetting all this talk of language and culture. Be it the grand Loy Krathong of Thailand, the brilliant Nyepi of Indonesia, or the symbolism-laden Tet of Vietnam, she shares very insightful meanings of these traditional events.

Zoom in, Zoom out करती है फोटो  Zoom in, Zoom out करती है फोटो   जब भी होती उसकी लड़ाई उससे,   पल भर की रुसवाई, फिर हंसी में सुलह,   प्यार बेशुमार है, फिर भी होती तकरार है।   कभी नजरें चुराए, कभी नज़रों से कहे,   सवालों के जवाब, बस मुस्कानों में रहे।   रूठकर पलटती, फिर नज़रें मिलाती,   दिल की उलझन, तस्वीर में छुपाती।   Zoom in, Zoom out करती है फोटो, Zoom in, Zoom out करती है फोटो   मोहब्बत की लहर, कभी तेज़, कभी हल्की,   फ्रेम में बंधी, पर धड़कनों में चलती। Zoom in, Zoom out करती है फोटो।  Penned by Mysticaanjali    "I'm participating in #BlogchatterA2Z" and  blogchatter

Yearning hums One breath away, worlds apart; One breath away, worlds apart;   a hidden fire in the dark, in the dark. The muted ache, the silent call,   The muted ache, the silent call,   that dream rises, never falls, never falls. Withheld touch, unspoken voice,   Withheld touch, unspoken voice,   bond unshaken, but so broken, but so broken. Yearning hums under the skin,  Yearning hums under the skin,   Long is the longing, short the paper-thin, short the paper-thin.

Xoxo Softly traced upon the page,  A parting kiss, there, a love engraved;  X's cross like a sigh passing by,  O's embrace where hope still lies.  Faded ink in distant echoes,  Love once promised and now we echo.  A faint mark, a name softly whispered,  Is a touch of fire and a breath of flame.  Time destroys what we sew,  But some still sign Xoxo.  Hmm... Time destroys what we sew, but some still sign.... some still... sign.... Xoxo.. Xoxo... Penned by Mysticaanjali   "I'm participating in #BlogchatterA2Z" and  Blogchatter
