Swan..........
Dear hold on............Got your reply to my message.
I dont know if saying everything is OK is right..........because Nothing is OK.
Ordinary people having dinner suddenly get shot, ordinary people travelling home get shot, ordinary but undoubtedly brave police officers, NSG personnel and army officers who were just doing their duty get shot, ordinary innocent tourists get shot, people gatheiring in a religious sanctuary are taken hostage and shot.........I dont think it is OK.........
Mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, wives, husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends, siblings, friends, associates, colleagues, and just a fellow human got killed......all because they were leading an ordinary life.
We lost two business associates..........per my knowlege now.....I dread to call home to find out more.
One was having dinner at the Taj. He was taken hostage and shot dead.
The other was dining at the Oberoi with his wife. In the commotion that followed the first round of attack, the people ran helter-skelter in all directions. The wife ran downstairs with a group of people to the basement and was rescued 9 hours later. But the husband ran with some people who took the stairs ......His dead body was found on the 19th floor of the Oberoi Trident 3 days later
I dont know what to feel or say anymore, I am hurting, I feel violated.
Yes my family is safe. But they are as vulnerable as your family Swan
because they live in a city, a lovely, lovely, lovely city whose only crime is that it accepts everyone............rich and poor, old and young, and of each religion or nationality.
Thanks anyways for making this post..........And I AM GRATEFUL and emotional that you made a post for an ordinary person like you and me.
Swan,
I know this is not going to be taken well.........but as a person who lives I am so hurting that I have to ask this.
Why?
Why ......are there no petitions, articles, blogs, posts, e-mails, vms, siggies to channels, broadcasting networks, SBS, Star Plus or any news channel this time??
Oh ...I know the answer............
Because 200+ living, breathing, ordinary people who are now dead......are NOTHING, NOTHING in comparison to in my mind, an unworthy television fictional Jodi. Right?.....Because the voices, anguish, broken homes, broken lives, screams and cries of their families and we Mumbaikars and Indians have no meaning...................Robbie and Kasturi ki life thik chal rahi hai na.....bas!!
You know what Swan.......
For the first time, for the first time.........I am glad that I am a dislilked person on this Kasturi forum.........for the right reasons.
Love
JW
