“Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day.
Unseen, unheard, but always near; still loved, still missed and very dear.” – Anonymous
The second half of 2021 was majorly spent dealing with the second wave of the COVID pandemic. It wrecked havoc and a lot of people lost their loved ones. With Diwali just around the corner, it is very natural for you to miss the departed. While Diwali won’t be the same for you, there are a lot of things that you can do in their memory to honour them and pay your respect. That will be your way of celebrating Apni si Deepawali. Take a look at some of the ways

This Deepawali, sponsor a tree and do a good act in their name. Keep visiting the tree every month and take care of it. This will help you come out of all the grief and will also be beneficial for the environment.
Sponsor a Child’s Education

Education is the best gift you can give anyone. You can visit an NGO or their website and sponsor the education of a child. Keep a check on the child’s progress and guide them.
Do Something they used to Do

If the departed organised a pooja on Diwali or made sweets, then follow the same. If they used to surprise everyone with gifts on Diwali, then do so. Celebrate Diwali in their style and be happy about the moments you shared with them.
