Am i right..... ?

Mumbai is always praised for its so called 'spirit'. which i fail to understand. it is said that how remarkable it is, that after suffering from heavy rains, bomb blasts, train accidents.... and several like incidents, the city is back to its normal life so quickly. I beg to differ. how can a person who lost his dear ones today be normal and back to his routine life tommorow. how can a person who lost his body parts in the accident be back to his normal life a day after. What happens is, people who remain unaffected by the tragedy return back to their 'normal' life. They see the sufferings, feel the pain ( i am really not sure about this ) , thank god that it did not happen to them and return back to their daily routines with the 'remarkable spirit'. And thanks to the media.... they come on television and give their speech... which is something like " we have faced the agony of life, but we have moved on". Is that reality? can a widow mother who lost his only child 'move on' a day after... can a man who is the only bread winner of his family, who lost his legs/hands 'move on' a day after.....can a shopkeeper whose life-time earnings got drowned in floods 'move on' a day after.

I agree that one has to move on. but its not so simple as its projected. When there is a wound in your palm, your hand is stif for some time.... it gets normal after a while, but its the palm which takes time to become normal.... the time which that wound takes to heal. Only after that you can say that you have moved on. Yes... you can not keep thinking of what happened, you have to move on eventually.... but it takes a finite time. Untill then, help the affected people to get back to their life.... don't rub salt into their wounds by saying that they have 'moved on'. Untill then... this so called 'spirit' is not remarkable, its 'insensitiveness' of mumbai.... sorry but thats the truth.
