Deepavali

Let not my mind be 
                       bogged down by the 
                       darkness of avarice, jealousy
                       ego and conceit; instead 
                       Let the 'Light' of thoughts 
                       of 'Service to suffering humanity 
                       pervade my heart and mind
                       on this day of auspiciousness, 
                       Deepavali.
