Dear Terrorist,

Even if you are not reading this we don’t care. Time and again you
tried to disturb us and disrupt our life – killing innocent civilians
by planting bombs in trains, buses and cars. You have tried hard to
bring death and destruction, cause panic and fear and create communal
disharmony but everytime you were disgustingly unsuccessful. Do you
know how we pass our life in Mumbai? How much it takes for us to earn
that single rupee? If you wanted to give us a shock then we are sorry
to say that you failed miserably in your ulterior motives. Better
look elsewere, not here.

We are not Hindus and Muslims or Gujaratis and Marathis or Punjabis
and Bengaliies. Nor do we distinguish ourselves as owners or workers,
govt. employees or private employees. WE ARE MUMBAIKERS (Bombay-ites,
if you like). WE ARE INDIANS. We will not allow you to disrupt our
life like this. On the last few occasions when you struck (including
the 7 deadly blasts in a single day killing over 250 people and
injuring 500+ in 1993),we went to work the next day in full strength.
This time we cleared everything within a few hours and were back to normal – the vendors placing their next order, businessmen finalizing the next deals and the office workers rushing to catch the next train. (Yes the same train you targetted)

Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood-
donating volunteers were seen outside various hospitals, where most
of the injured were admitted. By 12 midnight, the hospitals had to
issue a notification that blood banks were full and they didn’t
require any more blood. The next day, attendance at schools and
offices was close to 100%, trains & buses were packed to the brim,
the crowds were back.

The city has simply dusted itself off and moved on – perhaps with
greater vigour.

We are Mumbaikers, we are INDIANS and we live like brothers in times
like this. So,do not dare to threaten us with your crackers. The spirit
of INDIA is very strong and can not be harmed.

Please forward this to others. U never know, by chance it may come to
hands of a terrorist in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Iraq and he can then
read this message which is specially meant for him!!!

With Love,
From the people of INDIA

I’m sittin’ here all by myself
just tryin’ to think of something to do
Tryin’ to think of something, anything
just to keep me from thinking of you
But you know it’s not working out
’cause you’re all that’s on my mind
One thought of you is all it takes
to leave the rest of the world behind

Well I didn’t mean for this to go as far as it did
And I didn’t mean to get so close and share what we did
And I didn’t mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn’t mean to love me back/but I know you did

I’m sittin’ here tryin’ to convince myself
that you’re not the one for me
But the more I think, the less I believe it
and the more I want you here with me
You know the holidays are coming up
I don’t want to spend them alone
Memories of Christmas time with you
will just kill me if I’m on my own
I know it’s not the smartest thing to do
we just can’t seem to get it right
But what I wouldn’t give to have one more chance tonight

I’m sittin’ here tryin’ to entertain myself with this old guitar
But with all my inspiration goneit’s not getting me very far
I look around my room and everything I see reminds me of you
Oh please, baby won’t you take my hand
we’ve got nothing left to prove

And I didn’t mean to meet you then
we were just kids
And I didn’t mean to give you chills
the way that I kiss
And I didn’t mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn’t mean to love me back but I know you did
Don’t say you didn’t love me back ’cause you know you did
No, you didn’t mean to love me back
BUT YOU DID!!!
