Lilly Singh Instagram – Hannjiiiiii ✨ Some of my favourite moments from #LoveAndLight2023 I have zero pictures from the event on my phone. In fact, I don’t think I saw many people on their phone, period. Community anywhere is important, but I find more and more we’re only experiencing it online. In fact, we only measure moments, behavior and worth by what’s online these days. These pictures hold memories that a caption or IG post will never do justice to…and I love that. After the party, so many people texted me saying “your family and friends are so warm and welcoming,” and that makes me really proud. I’ve been to one too many events in my life where I walked in and immediately felt awkward. I felt this pressure to put on an act and find acceptance. That’s the opposite of what I want this annual event to be. Whether this is your 30th Diwali, or your first, this party will always be about unity, warmth and inclusion. That good, good energy is mandatory. Grateful for these moments. This is love 💜 📸: @alanvphotos
