\"Mumbai\"

Mumbai<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the flames of the city seemed to settle down with the dust, the pace of the city was just as Mumbai would be, quick, chaotic, restless and as always undying.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>What about it\u2019s spirit? <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I would not want to quote the routine but yes, the city is once again ready to bow down and salute the real life heroes \u2013 Our Officers & commandos.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our Mumbai did not see any one \u201cLeader\u201d around, probably for reasons of safety and security as the true brave hearts were giving us everything they had that too for those, who only read about them in the daily papers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As the real<\/em><\/strong> law holders fought for us, we the timid people, could watch them shed their blood from our home television sets. But at least the food did not go down our throats for those two days. At least, so much of shame was within, for those who spilled out all that they had for us\u2026.. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We mourned, we wept, we screamed inside our hearts in agony as the city was witnessing a fiery night out of nowhere. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As the cowards drew the first blood, it just got too expensive, as by the grace of God, Our Nation was blessed with the brave sons of this soil who kept the crown standing at the same place.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As we rejoice for those who were rescued, as we SALUTE those who saved our souls and as we mourn for the deceased, the flame within cannot fade. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You know why? <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can beat us, you can make us bleed\u2026.. but you can\u2019t break us\u2026. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the Mahatmas land\u2026.. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I salute today from my cosy home sitting in my comfortable chair those who have made me feel safer today\u2026. the real heroes who always were the demi-gods. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I bow down to every Life lost and pray for their souls to find peace. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI only hope one day for this free land\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n

to be actually free\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n

from the filthy games <\/span><\/p>\n

and selfish deeds\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

as I found\u00a0 <\/span>my city\u2019s crown today\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

shattered to many a piece\u2026.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is Mumbai, Do not ever try this again\u2026.. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n
