What next?

The tsunami came and left; tearing our lives apart while at the same time bringing us as a nation together. The oceans discriminated none.

However, if one takes the past few months into consideration, just how many troubles have hit the streets in a span of six to nine months? Starting from Shahrukh Khan’s issue, to rallies to strike after strike disrupting normal human life, standing in the way of whatever little progress there is, causing absolutely unnecessary disputes and pain and worst of all demeaning the status of mankind. You wake up in the morning to realise you cannot make it to work only because whatever simple and ineffective modes of available transport are completely non-functional. Parents send their children to school and wait at the gates with heavy hearts to see that the children arrive safely. People double check the locks of their vehicles to make sure they wont be carjacked or stolen off their dead bodies. A peaceful life of no worries and fears is almost unimaginable to us, leave alone the idea of making a home of your own for the future. It seems that the vicious circle continues destroying the joys and lives of many more generations to come!

Lord, I leave it in your hands as I hear your voice echoing that you leave it in mine!
