“Be Thankful for what you have, you’ll end up having more…”- Oprah Winfrey
A recent Diwali party organised by the American Chamber of Commerce had the usual cultural events of song and dance .
Usual? Not quite! The group of dancers ( performing Bharatnatyam- a South Indian classical form) were disabled – some deaf and some blind.
I was surprised at first, then impressed and later thankful.
Thankful for what I have - a lovely family and a healthy normal life to be able to do the things that I love to do - time with friends and family, travel, read and blog!

That is one beautiful event . The performers were amazing and inspiring in so many ways. I too am thankful for having a family who’s always there for me and for having great health. Priceless treasures we should thank for everyday. Have a blessed day!
Thanks IT! I’m so glad that I was able to attend this event. The performers were amazing, I didn’t even realise at first that they were an ‘unusual’ group- they’ve strived hard to overcome their handicap – an inspiring achievement !
