He is the Epitome of racial. I am not a racial person as i have aunts and uncles and cousins that are Indian, African, Dogula and Spanish and i love them all. But this man! Ever hear him talk at a political meeting ? Too many racial slurrs over the years

today is the the 5th day of Divali.....this day of Divali is called Bhai teeka....It is a day dedicated to sisters and brothers....many moons ago in the Vedic era Yama (Yamraj the Lord of death) visited his sister Yamuna on this day....he gave his sister a Vardhan (a boon) that whosoever visits her on this day shall be liberated from all sins....they will achieve Moksha or final emancipation from then on brothers visit their sisters on this day to enquire of their welfare....today marks the end of the 5 days of Divali celebrations....this is also known as Bhai fota among Bengalis.....Bhai fota is an event especially among Bengalis when the sister prays for her brother's safety success and well being....so if u have a brother or sister plz visit or call each other....no matter u guys may fight and don't agree for some reason....u r still siblings and that can't change.....

 

[Mr.Bollywood]

thats very true teagnie, i fully agree with what you say! siblings are siblings no matter what!
