Celebrating Independence Day and Parsee New Year
Wishing all my Indian friends a very Happy Independence day. Well there are no Parsees here so I cannot wish Parsee New Year. Basically it's my religion New Year today. Thankfully it's Friday and it's a weekend here in Oman so good time to celebrate both the days, and I miss India so much on such times. The vibe is so different, you are between your own people and doing all those traditional things which gives a spark to the day.
It is the 79th year of India's Independence. Most of the institutions and societies have a flag hoisting ceremony today, we too have it in our society. It's important to do these things for the younger generation to understand what sacrifices have gone in to living in this free India. If India was not looted by the Britishers, probably it would had been one of the most prospering Countries of the world today. Nevertheless all the achievements it has made since independence have also been commendable and I am always proud to be an Indian.
Today to celebrate my new year, me along with some of my community friends we have booked a over night resort stay at Shangri-La, which is one of the good resort chains of the world. Some months back, we were at the mall and there was a promotional offer going on for this resort which was giving a 50% summer discount offer on stay. We had bought it then and decided to use it for New Year's. I am so excited. I have made some traditional food for lunch, which I will carry and we will have it together at the resort. And I am looking forward to a relaxed cozy day in the pool.
I will share the pictures of our stay in a couple of days. As of today I am going to enjoy my day with hubby and friends and I will see you all tomorrow.
Happy weekend to everyone.

This is amazing! Happy Independence Day to all my Indian friends! I just found out it was a special day, and you won't believe this coincidence—I was writing a post about Maslow's pyramid of needs without even knowing it was your Independence Day!
It's one of those incredible moments that just makes you smile. Maslow's pyramid is a super cool idea that helps us understand what makes people tick. Think of it like this: at the bottom, you have the basics, like food, water, and a safe place to sleep. Once you have those, you can move up to the next level, which is about feeling loved and having friends. After that, you want to feel respected and have a sense of accomplishment.
But the most fascinating part is the very top of the pyramid: self-actualization. This is about being the best you can be and reaching your full potential. I was writing about how incredible figures like Mahatma Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore, who are so important to India's history, perfectly represent this! They went beyond their own needs to serve their country and humanity, which is exactly what self-actualization is all about.
So, on this special day, let's celebrate not just freedom, but also the spirit of people like Gandhi and Tagore who show us what's possible when we strive for greatness. I hope you'll check out my post on the topic—I think it connects perfectly with the heart of what this day is all about!
Very well said. These were people who were selfless and everything they thought and did was beyond them. If not for them, don't know what India would had been today.
Happy Independence day.
Thank you and wish you the same
