My mom doesn't usually cry. I usually don't see tears running down her cheeks even when we watch the worst tearjerker movies. ( I do and that is one reason why I hate them.) So when I saw my mom crying, I just peeped to see what was up.
It was the report about the terrorist attacks in Mumbai. They were interviewing some of the relatives of some people who had died. They weren't crying; but the emotion expressed in their words was so powerful that my mom soon found tears rolling down her cheeks. I soon found that I was crying too. In fact even the memory causes such pain... I wonder how people bear it.
And I can't understand how people can become so cold hearted, so inhuman to kill innocent people who have done them no harm. What is the point they are trying to prove? Does killing people solve anything on this earth? Who puts such dumb ideas into the heads of men?
I was most thrilled by the scene which showed helicopters dropping NSG commandos on the buildings. I fail to find words to express my gratitude to the armed forces who come to rescue us in such difficult situations. I am proud to say that of all things I am proud of about my country, nothing ranks better than our defence forces. I salute them and wish them victory in everything they do.
I did not think I would get time to do this. There is a lot of work to be completed; but I would not have slept peacefully if I had not written this. These inhuman acts are to be condemned, to say the least. Many innocent people lost their lives in these dastardly attacks. May their souls rest in peace.
