It never seems to end…

November 6th, 2006  |  Published in India & Around, Living, Personal  |  10 Comments

Another two blasts in Guwa­hati yes­ter­day. I called mom and dad imme­di­ately. My dad told me he was in the same area the day before. It’s a busy shop­ping cen­tre so there’s likely to be quite a lot of peo­ple around. Mom trav­els to and fro work every­day and a pretty long distance.

It’s a lit­tle scary and unnerv­ing as to how easy it is for some­one to plant a bomb. The next thing you know is someone’s fam­ily is wiped out. Some­one loses a father, some­one a mother, some­one else a sib­ling per­haps. And to what end? Right now, it’s more like vio­lence for the sake of vio­lence. They seem to be intent to ter­ror­is­ing the com­mon man and wip­ing out their own peo­ple from the face of the state.

    There was a time when I used to won­der how safe it would be for some­one to be liv­ing in the J&K val­ley area where bomb­ing was some­thing so reg­u­lar that it finally stopped mak­ing much news material.

    But now after the recent bomb blasts around var­i­ous parts of the coun­try — you won­der how safe is it to just “live” any­where. Yes, plant­ing bombs has become so easy.

    Just makes life so uncer­tain and insecure.Over here in Sin­ga­pore we are also aware it can hap­pen any­time. My friend’s hus­band works there too. Her story: (http://www.xanga.com/erikanissa/544894614/bomb-blast-amongst-the-unreached-group.html

    I know how it must have been. Every time there is blast soemwhere I keep think­ing of all my friends in the city and can­not pe at peace until I have made sure they are all safe.
    When will they realise that it is totally unfair to ter­rorise com­mon peo­ple who have noth­ing to do with their issues.

    I don’t know whether news like this makes me sad or fills me up with anger… No cause, No griev­ance can jus­tify such hor­rific acts of sheer cow­ardice against inno­cent lives…

    It leaves me seething with anger at this idiots.. who gave them author­ity to take lives? If i get my hands on them i would like to slowly tear them flesh by flesh, blood ves­sel by ves­sel, cell by cell„„

    In lighter words, that would make me no dif­fer­ent from those cowards…we can just make them do manial jobs for the affected fam­ily through­out their life.

    cheers
    mohan!
