I thought your blog post was interesting because it related a holiday festival to society. I agree that an event such as Holi can unite many people of different religions for this joyous activity. Uniting people of different ethnicities and religions is huge. Though I had heard of the holiday before reading this blog post, I never thought of the impact it has on society until now.
ReplyDeleteI liked the example you picked to show that people living in society should have no problem living happily. Holi looks like good example to show that people should change the way they live if they are living in a negative way. Maybe this sets an example to have for fun festivals like this to help people live free.
ReplyDeleteI recently had a friend celebrate this holiday over seas in another country and I honestly don't think I have ever heard of it before. It was really neat to be able to read about it and learn what this holiday is about and the culture of it.
