An unforgettable Wednesday

Mumbai terrorism attacks – something no Indian would have imagined that would happen to us. An attack which had an impact on every true Indian! An attack which is going on for 3 days which we have never witnessed before!

Well, what is happening to our country?

2008 is a bad year for us. Starting from Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Jaipur… we are witnessing so many terrorists’ attacks this year. Even after our country has been hit by so many attacks, we are still unable to zero-in on the perpetrator!

Frankly, all the blasts occurred except Mumbai had very less impact on me. I just prayed that everyone should be fine.

But today after seeing Mumbai suffer, I can hear my heart beats go in a rapid pace, a silent prayer goes through my mind, eyes filled with tears and that conveys helplessness and a sense of fear that prevails in me even now.. when I type this.

At this point I am really scared to step out of my house. I feel there is no positive vibes out here. I just want to say ‘enough is enough we can’t take it anymore’!

I want to just put down my thoughts here and show my anger. I just want to point out on the people whom I just hate now and show them what they have not done. But am just scared to go on.. .I sense now that the liberty to express has gone haywire! The blasts have just scared the hell out of me! I just want to say one thing “F**K them”!

I want to end here by thanking the NSG force and the various heros who have helped the people who have been trapped and especially the NSG for shooting the accused! Hats off to them and am just so proud how strong our army force is! It simply implies ‘Dude even if you take 3 days or 4 days, we are not gonna leave you alive’!

With a silent prayer for the people who have lost their lives, I sign off!

Post Script:
I really want to appreciate NDTV for their outstanding coverage on this. Personally I liked the way the news was presented by them. Especially Pranoy Roy for his comments that hooked me to write this! Well, I don’t have a legal platform to comment on this, am just happy that someone who is well learnt about all the sides is doing our job!

After taking a minute of silence to pay respect to those who sacrificed their lives, I comment here on this post, which shows just how much you've been affected.I assure you.I'm as scared as you are. And I feel like today has been a terrible day and will definitely find its way in the history books of our children tomorrow...The hard truth is, we can only pray or discuss this issue.Maybe, blog or have a debate about this..All this we do, with a guilt that we are actually not capable of doing "anything". I mean it when I say anything...And I am one among those millions who has her mouth wide open, pulse rate going high, eyes wide in shock, glued to the idiot box with a gifted channel(ndtv) and all this still when in handcuffs..and I m ashamed of myself for being the person I am today.
