Last month, my typical IT professional brother (minus the hard work) who works in Bangalore popped in for a visit. I wouldn’t exactly call it a pleasure trip unless getting operated for hernia involved any such thing. At any rate I figured out that an operation involves a considerable amount of kingly treatment after that. My cousin was a real mystery to me since I had known him only for a couple of years (that’s a long story). At first it was like “Oh wow! I have a big brother, that’s so cool!” but after being ruthlessly teased, I began to think “Oh what a pain!” .Having him stay over here for some weeks had me change my mind all over again.

It was definitely fun to watch him fight with his mom (my aunt) since that kept me out of the arena. I actually had thought of him as this cool ice prince who just shrugs off and gives a smile no matter what anyone tells him. That, I realized was a mistake on my part. He was just a regular guy who now with his new found habit of reading is on “a path to greater good”. Well then maybe not really but as of now he is on “a path to UK”.

Two days back there were several bomb blasts in two of the leading metropolitan cities of India; Bangalore and Ahmedabad. Bangalore is the IT hub of India and a city that had been spared from the radical attacks in the past until now. There are more threats to other cities all over India as well.


I’m really confused as to the statement that these people intend to make; are they trying to say that “Oh those unsuspecting people going about on the roads trying to make ends meet are so easy to kill! So why not kill them and make a point!” what the point is, is still a mystery to me though and I’m sure so it is to a millions of others too. I don’t really remember having heard any religion telling its followers to go ahead and kill innocent people carrying on with their daily lives. I don’t find the excuse of having suffered when young worthwhile enough to explain the mass murdering of gullible men, women and children.


These so called terrorists say that they are fighting for freedom and that they have no choice but I call that rubbish because every human being has a choice: choice of action. Being blessed with life by god definitely can’t be for the purpose of destroying his other creations. If they really wanted to change the world, they should do so by bringing justice to thousands of people out there. They should put their resources and caliber into preventing crime and maintaining harmony. I guess then, I would believe them to be true heroes but as of now they are nothing but aimless murderers who operate like rats, who instead of coming up front and talking, stab innocents in their backs.
