This year Vesak festival ๐Ÿฎ๐ŸŽƒ

We celebrated Vesak this year month of May. Other years my mother, father, sister and I celebrated the Vesak festival very happily๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜. That years we went look Thoran, Vesak lanterns etc. My father's work place arranges every year Vesak lanterns competition Every year we went their to look them. There were very beautiful and very big Vesak lanterns that day. We could see many beautiful Vesak lanterns at the Vesak day along every roads๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž.

But this year we couldn't celebrate Vesak festival as last year๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ช. Because now there is a dangerous virus in the world which is Covid 19. We can't go to look Thoran, we can't go to Dansal etc. At least we can't go to temple too. In short we can't go to any crowd area. All Sri Lankan Buddhists were very sadly celebrated this year Vesak festival at house๐Ÿ˜Œs. The government put lockdown whole the country because of the vesak festival. If they didn't do that people go everywhere for celebrate the festival. Then definitely increase the virus and fall victim to lot of people to the Covid 19 virus๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ฒ. 

So, all of those reasons we had to celebrate Vesak festival at our houses๐Ÿ˜‡. Therefore we also celebrated the festival at our home. My sister and me made two Vesak lanterns. My mother also helped us to make them๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’“. She bought and gave us color papers for decorate the lanterns. We decorated those lanterns by two colors. They were Red and White๐Ÿ’“♡. It seemed very nicely and very beautifully๐Ÿ˜. 

That day my father came house near six o'clock. He helped us to put light bulbs to the lanterns and hanged them๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜Ž. These are the lanterns which we made.



If we hadn't the Covid 19 pandemic we will celebrate the Vesak festival nicely. We had very happy about our work๐Ÿ˜ƒ. We couldn't go to temple, couldn't go to look Thoran and we couldn't arrange any Dansal. But we had very happy about that day๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜‰. So I celebrated the day my mother, father, sister and my grand mother at home. That is a one of lovely and beautiful day in my life๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ’“.
