பொங்கல் வாழ்த்துக்கள் - Happy Pongal festival

Tomorrow is Pongal. The harvest festival in Tamil Nadu.
My wishes to all the Tamil bloggers. May the Pongal festival bring happiness and abundance in your lives.
The festival is celebrated after months of toil and the benefits of agricultural output cooked and relished. I asked one wise guy who was celebrating Pongal as to what is the philosophy he has about the Pongal dish the family had cooked. He replied back "First ஆசாமி(man)  then சாமி(God)".
He had a simple philosophy and though said humorously it struck chord with me. How I wish that every person is treated like that by every other person in this way !! And I have to pray God for that !!
