OH2: Sarvajanic Ganesh Utsav in Orchid Harmony

Ganapati utsav celebrations started amidst some rough discussions,which were necessiated by  a group of people who started taking decisions on behalf of every  body. 
With lots of discussions, the new ideas float in and a different set of leaders in true sense come up. Suddenly the emphasis from collection of money shifted to collective effort. Every tower has been allotted some task and the freedom to execute. All interested people came  forward to contribute. The joint effort brings in positivity and interaction among residents. People have started knowing others by face now. A cutural exchange has started.
Today,my tower were assigned to bring prasaad. Ladies of the tower joined hands to make prasad at home instead of ordering it from market. We made coconut laddoos.
Sarvajanik Ganapati in OH is for three days. Tomorrow evening,Ganspati will be taken for visarjan. Since we opted for eco Ganapati , we pat our back !
Today,I have said goodbye to my gunnubhai too. I did the visarjan in a bucket. I have brought home ganapati for the first time.
OH is a great community and is a great teacher in community living.
May all have positivity,happiness and support each other when needed.
