There are quite a few religions in Sri Lanka:
Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam and Christianity.
I’m a Buddhist and for us the most important
day of the year is Wesak.
[b] In the morning, we take flowers to the
temple and we give money and food to the
people who look after it.
[c] In the evening we usually join a procession
and walk through the streets and other public
places singing. There are colourful paper
lanterns everywhere.
[d] It’s not a time for eating a lot – it’s a time
for reflection, for thinking about how we can
be better people.
Write soon and tell me more about your
country.
