Blast

It's taken me a little time to digest what happened in Mumbai. I still have a perpetual sinking feeling thatI know is related to a prolonged reaction to the stream of news and updates throughout thanksgiving. I have heard news from or of most people I care for. The others I prayed for on mutiple visits to the temple ( unusual for me) and my own personal send up daily. I felt unnerved mostly because i had been to most of th eplaces where explosions and violence occurred, some place many times. Also I thought of when the blasts occurred and I did not feel endangered, but had my folks in a tail spin about my safety because some of those blasts occurred on the line I took to and from work. K watched the footage and followed the news online too. He is thankful that we are not in Mumbai dealing with the madness of the events. I feel differently. I still love that city despite all of its harassing factors. I really hope there isn't a huge backlash in India because of these events. I also hope that India and Pakistan handle the issues at hand civilly. If terrorists do exist, then a feud between the two countries would divert their focus and leave room for more insidious acts of violence.
