another scare,another day

today - again - bombay came under a terror attack.its almost like this has become an everyday affair.when you hear about something like this,it hardly comes as a surprise.we say a tiny prayer,for those who've lost their lives,and a slightly bigger one thanking whoever it is,that oh my,its not me.
what has happened to that frail emotion of humanity?why has extremism - in any form - risen to such an extent that your inner human is dead enough to kill innocent people?what kind of demands do these .. blasted terrorists.. want to make anyway,that they kill anyone?id understand if it was as assassination,or killing of officials or something like that.but killing hundreds and injuring thousands - common people,like you and me - where is that taking them?what are they proving this way?
before,all these bomb blasts and explosions were something that happened far far away.it didnt affect the common man.you just saw about it on the news on tv,felt pity for the dead and anger for the bastards,and continued with life.but with passing time,its as if its moving towards you.it happens in a city you frequent.it happens in a city where your dear and loved one stay.it makes you fear for their lives,and even if its not in their area,you call them up - patiently waiting to get through the clammered telecom network - and ask for their well-being.
and you never know,what can happen to you.i think we are really living for the moment.we make plans,to go to office,send our kids to school,meet friends in the evening,catch that new movie that released...we make plans.and one moment - one unexpected moment - everything changes.and there's nothing.who's to say how long we'll stay?that we are not going to be a target some day?that this is the last time.look at what has happened to these poor people.going about their every-day lives - going to office,eating dinner,going to pray to a lord,who is soon going to have them with him... what do these people have to do with anything?
and the administration,the government is rendered helpless.totally helpless.they try to help,but the citizens and the survivors do their utmost,more than the authorities,carting off the painfully dead, and the merciless alive.the government then declares compensation for the next of kin,makes empty promises, and hopes this is the last of it.until it happens again.
today,i dont blame the government.i hold nobody responsible.only those narrow-minded people who think they can rule the world.who think waving a gun in front of a civilian is a joke.who thinks a bomb is an amusement.who thinks that loss of life,of family,of loved ones ,is not a loss to humanity.who thinks that we'll stop living,fall on our knees and beg for forgivement.
today,i pray for all those people around the globe who have been victims of any form of terror.i pray for their families.i pray for those personnel who risk their lives venturing into the unknown,trying in any way,to get back what is lost.and i thank lord,it wasnt me.and i pray,that this - maybe,hopefully - is the last of it all.until next time.
may the dead rest in peace.may the wounded heal.and may justice be served.

Where were you when the world stopped turning that September day?
Teaching a class full of innocent children?
Or driving down some cold interstate?
Did you feel guilty cause you're a survivor?
In a crowded room did you feel alone?
Did you call up your mother and tell her you loved her?
Did you dust off that Bible at home?
Did you open your eyes, hope it never happened?
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
Did you notice the sunset the first time in ages?
Speak with some stranger on the street?
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow Go out and buy you a gun?
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some strangers?
Stand in line and give your own blood?
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family?
Thank God you had somebody to love
I'm just a singer of simple songs I'm not a real political man
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was youngFaith, Hope and Love are some good things He gave us
And the greatest is Love
And the greatest is Love.

something important???
na....havent got anything really important,per se, as i had said in my last post,to talk about...
ok.lets discuss... death magentic by metallica...i finally heard all the songs in the album,so here goes the critic review!(*live!)
~My Apocalypse . oh my god.too loud.goes on and on.change please.couldnt survive more than 30 secs!
~Set Me Free . ok ok...too loud.typical metal.time heard - 1:50.its like the music going on in loops.argh,im getting a head-ache,next song!
~Suicide and Redemption. amazing...very sweet song..though repititive,its a good song to hear when your in THE mood.very un-metallica-ish song.
~The Day That Never Comes. I like.I like. I like. has a pop feeling to it,but i like.
~Cyanide.Aiyyo!too कर्कश।
~Broken, Beat & Scarred. ok types.
~Unforgiven III. nice nice nice.especially the start with the piano.good lyrics.though personally im still ranking Unforgiven II as my fav,followed by Unforgiven.(I)
~Set Me Free. good.head-banging material.
~Ecstasy of Gold.amazing.better than the other version loved it.
~All Nightmare Long. बाप रे बाप।
~The End Of the Line...grr
all in all a good album.would have liked it better,but for the fact that im not a hard-metal fan.but for the slower,more calm songs,i liked them!for them id give a 3.5 on 5.
