Move On
I’m sharing a lovely article I read by Deepa Gahlot.
There was an odd piece of news tucked into the newspapers-one third of India lives is houses smaller than US prison cells.
This must be true of homes in Mumbai-supposedly the most prosperous city in the country. Most Indians probably eat less than an average American kid,& do without a fraction of their wardrobe too.
Still,whenever there are happiness surveys,Indians come up in top of the list of the happiest people.
I can’t talk for the rest of the country,but as far as Mumbai is concerned, the crowd,the lack of space & general discomfort,seem to have shaped the just-get-on-with-it character of the Mumbai-ite(including me).
People here don’t even expect to live in palatial flats.So when they manage a one BHK in a distant suburb they are happy with it.Even the most tiniest cramped spaces appear spacious to local gusets.
It’s amazing how everyone makes do with less space-every inch is utilized to store things under beds,over cupboards & behind sofas.If an extra person lands up ,everyone’adjusts’.
When they commute to work in sardine-tin trains & buses,they simply squash themselves to’adjust ‘ more people.The only complaint wil come from an outsider,who freaks out at the sight of people hanging out of local trains. But Mumbaikars are quite happy if they reach home on time to watch TV,picking up groceries on the way(same pich).
Those who live in homes smaller the prison cells take pains to decorate them with plastic flowers,bright curtains & lurid posters.A folding chair miraculously appears for a guest along with water & strong cup of tea.
These people will have the flashiest weddings,the noisest festivals & a general air of gaiety all year round, regardless of the weather.
And they are also not fazed by floods,blasts & other disasters because their life teaches them to accept everything thrown at them & with time actually since birth learn not to whine.
Life could not get worse,& so it can only get better.Maybe that’s why Indians-Mumbai-ites in particular-must be the most optimistic people in the world.
Call it resilience, apathy or chalta hai attitude,it’s tested whenever there is a crisis & the roof just never caves in on them, because there is no space even for the debris to fall into.

I have some questions amongst many to be raised............
1)how did d terrorists walk d long distances on the road with exposed weapons before seizing vehicles ?
2)why were d police so poorly equipped ?
3)why was d morale of d police force busted in d initial yet crucial stage of combat by making d death of d 3 officers public ?
4)why was there minute by minute,move by move coverage by d media thus aiding the terrorists ?why was the Media not cordoned of from the site ?
5)where is the huge quantity of RDX,that was found,& why is the military denying finding,is something sinister in the making.........?
6)A day after the attack why did Sumana Raghavan-general manager of Central Railways,fly down to delhi to party with colleagues at the Taj Palace hotel ?
7)How Did the two taxis blow up due to RDX(given their state after),or grenades(just doesn't sink in)
8) as per media reports the intelligence pplread R&AW officers are being used for political spying,why ?
9)Why can't the MARCOS & NSG commandos one unit be stationed for Mumbai only & come into action when needed & have autunomy.?
10)How many more such carnages has Mumbai to witness in the name of being a city with grit & spirit?ENOUGH!

Finallllyyyyyy !!!
Finally,our NSG Commandos & MARCOS:read security forces have found victory over those remorseless,so called humans aptly called terrorists,this attack was more to do with underminig our prestige than just terror.At first was too numb to react,it just didn't sink in that it's real,but it was REAL! Till date had only seen it happening in films & wish to see it there only.But we live in world where terrorism has become a stark truth just like death is,so rather than pinning unrealistic hopes like having a security infrasrtucture as such that this doesn't happen in the future we should aim for our system to be put in place as such that if GOD forbid this happens again,our crisis management is so well equipped & the secutity forces have autunomy atleast in combat situations,that within minutes everything is under control & there is no SEIGE situation again.
At present we need to maintain our cool & not let those maniacs succeed in their destructive plan B i.e. chaos,hatred & division,Mumbai is a city known for being a melting pot of cultures let it be so,do not look down with hatred on any community or individula coz these inhuman terrorists have no religion,no God.
A Mumbaikar who takes pride in being one.

The Way People Say Sorry!!!
The way people apologise and their style of saying sorry depends a lot on their personality and zodiac traits. No wonder Leos embarrass you when they say sorry while Arians will actually annoy you with their apology?...
Aries: For starters, Arians think they are so sweet,they could not have possibly said or done things that need an apology. So in the unlikely possibility of them actually going down their knees to apologise, it will be a simple sorry.Nothing less, nothing more.
Taurus: They are so scared to face others when they make a mistake that by the time they resurface to tender an apology, the damage is done. So Taureans end up making foes out of friends because of their laxity in apologizing.
Gemini: Geminis think they are infallible and therefore will never really apologise for anything. But once they realize, they prefer to act as if nothing happened, and behave normally with people who have a problem rather than remind others of the incident by tendering an apology. Cancer: Cancerians will make you feel sorry for demanding one when they make a mistake. They are the legendary characters that burn hands and slash their fingers! in order to display the quantum of their repentance. Their repentance is dangerous.
Leo: Leos are a delightful bunch even when they are trying to make up for their follies. They will go down their knees, buy flowers, put up sorry posters.. do everything colorful to flatter you and make up for their mistakes. In fact it's fun to induce them to make a mistake and let them apologize for it.
Virgo: Virgos will first formally set aside a time and date and inform them what they want to tell you. Then they will mentally prepare themselves to talk out the same things. They will finally draft the script and read out whatever they want to. In short, even their heartfelt apologies sound like well-drafted scripts.
Libra: They are very vocal once they realize their folly. They never ever hesitate to come clean and admit their mistakes. In fact, they will go out of their way to convince you about how genuinely sorry they are.
Scorpio: Scorpios are formal and think that tendering an apology is more of a formality. So instead of just saying sorry, they will send a formal mail or send a card, whatever it takes to avoid direct confrontation.
Sagittarius: Sagittarians don't believe in being sorry or apologizing. For them, it is human to err and therefore saying sorry is just redundant. Interestingly, even if others make mistakes, they are pretty cool and don't expect much from them.
Capricorn: They can't take a simple sorry. They need reasons,explanations, written letters and the works to get elicit an 'ok, you may go now' phrase. They are hard to please and even harder to appease.
Aquarius: They are sweet, genuine and innovative when they think they are wrong and need to undo the damage.Aquarians are easy on their mistakes and don't take too much time to do their sorrying.
Pisces: Pisceans don't easily give in because they believe that everything is about perspective. So if somebody thinks they made a mistake! , it's because they have a wonky perspective. Pisceans and apologies? No chance!!!
Aries: For starters, Arians think they are so sweet,they could not have possibly said or done things that need an apology. So in the unlikely possibility of them actually going down their knees to apologise, it will be a simple sorry.Nothing less, nothing more.

Dont let Faith be Hijacked
By Firoz Bakht Ahmed
Islam is once again under the scanner with the unearthing of the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) terror trail. With the logo of its offshoot, the ‘Indian Mujahideen’ displaying guns on either side of the Quran, the connection made with Islam is UGLY &MISGUIDING.
I wonder if this fringe group knows that in the words of theological expert Abdullah Yusuf Ali, the Quran states that ”treason against the State, combined with treason against ALLAH is a crime with punishments like execution, crucifixion, maiming or exile as per the situation”?
JEHAD is highly misunderstood not only by non-Muslims but also by Muslims. Islam sanctions wars but under very strict rules. The true Concept of Jihad is the waging of war against one’s own selfish nature, vices & shortcomings. It is also the war to be waged within Muslim society to fight evil, injustice inequity, illiteracy & ignorance.
The terrorists aims were clear in Hyderabad, Gujarat, Jaipur & Bangalore – to drive a wedge between Hindus & Muslims & create a riot like situation. Further, in such tragic situations, irresponsible statements & mud slinging by political parties have only helped terrorists outfits that were, until now, marginalized.
Though Both the communities acted in restraint after the recent attacks, we need to prioritise security & vigilance. The Saner elements in both communities must take lead in foiling attempts by fundamentalists to play up such incidents.
