So I actually started doing these exchanges in an attempt to get some neat stuff for my soon to be adopted nephews. Unfortunately I've hit a bit of a rough patch here lately, so when I saw this exchange come along I took it as a sign to do something for myself! I read that Diwali spiritually signifies the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, knowledge over ignorance, and hope over despair. How perfect is that for a pick me up? I sure got mine when I received my star lamp in the mail. Not only that, but a couple of days later I received some rainbow colored tea lights! I'll be able to celebrate this festival of lights in style this year. Thank you Santa!
