The Candle March today brought back fresh memories of that fateful night when the nightmare started. An sms was all that was needed to rob our sleep....Terror has struck Mumbai. And with it came back more memories.......the delhi blasts ....the gauhati blasts all in the past consecutive months....... the memory of the nine year old in delhi .......the children who lost their parents in gauhati...... the father who could never get out of the driver's seat.....the last phone call of a loved one still haunts us......well the list goes on.....what is the future???......when will the blame game stop?????...... what answer can we give to this young child when he asks why do we light candles here...... who are those people???......why do they hate us ????......and so many endless questions that arises in his little mind. And will we ever we able to give him any surety when he looks up to you and says with all innocence and hope "Keep me safe please ". Lets all join hands and work for a better future.....a safer future......a brighter future for the children of tomorrow.

Innocence of childhood, in all its tragic hues. Makes me nervous..thinking of what awaits this child..
Answering child's questions some time becomes impossible....its hard 2 make them understand...honest reason being we dont have answers..like one on terrorism.......its tuff....but we have to fight and fight 2gether..its gonna tek some doing before we can solve it out
but i strongly believe
United We Stand
divided we Fall
Thanks & regards
I'm glad there is this wave of change arising slowly yet steady amongst people in India.
