Festival of colour

[Bonobo]

Today we went to visit out family. On the way, we saw groups of young people going to a venue. A few hours later, we saw them coming back, all spray painted in bright colours. What was going on?

I have just checked it out, it was the Festival of Colour. It takes place annually in major cities.

I love colourful arrangements, they save me from getting depression, but I wouldn`t attend this one, because I used spray paint a few times in my life and it didn`t smell nice.

Personally, I wouldn't want to breathe in all that vaporized spray paint!...not good for the lungs!

On second thoughts, I suppose they use eco paint, friendly for human lungs....

Hmmm...I don't know about that. The only thing good for the lungs is clean, pure air. Anything else is foreign to the system and can be regarded as an "invader." Who wants that stuff in their body, whether eco-friendly or not?!

This reminds me of the Hindu spring festival Holi, celebrated in India and Nepal, also known as the "festival of colours" or the "festival of love". Also Dutch Hindu's originating from Suriname (and transported to Suriname in the late 19th century as contract labourers from India) celbrate the Holi festival.
