December is a time of celebrations for many. Of course Christmas is one of the most celebrated festivals in the world.
However, did you know that in December, Hindus in Tamil Nadu celebrate Karthikai Deepam (a festival of lights), Jews celebrate Hannakah, Muslims celebrate Al Hijra and African Americans celebrate Kwanzaa? Everyone has something to celebrate in December!

Happy Holidays!
