So of course as Deepavali, the Hindu festival of lights approaches--your mind automatically goes East, right. As in Eastern Kentucky. When I say, "Hindu Holiday," you think "Miley Cyrus." Right on, man! Hindu = Billy Ray's daughter. I say, "Vedas," you think "Achy Breaky Heart." Its only logical, right?
You can only imagine how I felt when I found this Deepavali greeting card today featuring none other than Hannah Montana! Oh how the over-commercialization of Deepavali grieves me (and don't even get me started on Deepavali greeting cards...)!!

Or that the card is a bootleg.
Either way, SHINE ON!

How bizarre!
So America isn't the only country to commercialize their holidays? I guess money makes the world go 'round, or so they say...
Last night my kids spent 4 hrs watching Bollywood versions of High School Musical- weird, right? After 2 hrs they asked "What language is this???"
Let's keep "Deep" in Deepabali! Amen?
