A day in which people of different religions in our country can be united with hopes and wishing an  year of prosperity and peace in our land.I think that is the most admirable message we get during this festival.That we, srilankans, even with different backgrounds, with different religions and beliefs can wish together.This is the 1st new Year which can be fully celebrated after decades in which our people suffered of a disastrous war. A war which terrorized our country which made us lose loved ones. I think we should hope for a future without terrorism in our country, without wars which made millions of mothers cry. Hatred is indeed never appeased by hatred in this world. It is appeased only by loving kindness. This is an ancient law.This is the message and the morale containted in every religion and phylosophy in the world.This might get simply boring if I go on... Ayesha</blockquote>
