The recent German Bakery bomb blast has created a massive impact on the people. Never really imagined Pune being targetted. Funny though, coz no one seems to be able to figure out the real motive of these blasts. I wonder who really plans all these blasts and how do they decide where and how such blasts would take place.
The newspapers are full of daily 'updates' on the blasts and the blast victims. The condition of the injured is described in detail. A young techie's leg has been amputated, his body was full of sharpnel, the foreign particles have penetrated his stomach and he is on antibiotics......

A person's whole life would change. Imagine the trauma he feels when he realises that one of his legs is amputated.........
And there are hundreds and thousands of such lives that have changed for the worse because of these blasts in various parts of the world. At the end of it all, does one really understand or want to understand the reasons behind these attacks?? What do these terrorists want??

Recently read the latest book by Dan Brown. The author has brought forth a funda that if an idea is thought of collectively by many people, it has chances of resulting into reality!!!
I immediately linked it to what my mom says. She says that her life has been good because she had the backing/support/blessings of many people who saw her struggling to give her kids a good life. She says that one's efforts and luck are not the only things that make one's life a good one. The role of others blessings and prayers have a lot to do with our life turning out to be good.

And if that holds true, with so much of hatred and anguish and hurt, is it possible for the terrorists to win their so called battle??????
The other day I fell short of Rs 7 for buying ice cream. the vendor had already packed the ice-cream. He told me that I could give the remaining money some other time. I went back home, got the money and gave him the amount that was due. In my mind, I was sure that if I hadnt given him the money, I wouldnt have been able to eat the ice-cream in peace. Those 7 bucks due would have spoilt the fun of my ice-cream....
And here are people killing other people for their gain......... however important/significant the cause may be, but nothing would justify the killing of so many innocent people.
How do these terrorists sleep at night?????
No place is a safe place these days. And most importantly, life itself has become so cheap. My mind reaches out to those whose lives change so drastically and so tragically. A husband, a wife, a son, a daughter, a parent.......... all with a wound that is so damn difficult to heal.
