Delhi Serial blasts


Over the past few months, there have been blasts in various parts of the country and even though it was tragic it wasn't something that I could relate to. It was hard to imagine that there would actually be serial blasts in Delhi, that to in places I was so familiar with. I practically lived in M block market after every exam and so many of my friends were there on the day of the blast. Thankfully they are all okay. It was strange, I was at an Art show near CP unaware of the face that a few kilometres away innocent people were losing their lives. Each and every one of the victims must have stepped out of their homes that day either to hang out with friends, maybe shop for new clothes or just go about their daily business, completely unaware of the fact that that was the last time they were doing so. I didn't wish to step out of the house anymore but then I realized that this was the reaction the terrorist were hoping for. It's not just about taking innocent lives, it's about inflicting fear in those who survive. The last thing we should do is give in to them, we have to fight it out as a tribute to victims of terror attacks, to ourselves and to life.

Hello and welcome to the Blogosphere.

A nice post to start off with and I the moment Kirat told me about it, I knew it was going to have a pink background. I do hope that everyone who died in the blasts RIP and that everyone injured gets all right.
