The news of 28 tourists killed in Kashmir by terrorists, shooting at them from a close range, shocked all of us. Even children were not spared! A strong suspicion that a people from one community was targeted! The shooters were armed intruders from the neighbouring country. The enmity lasting between the two countries, since independence, erupts in ugly form regularly!
There is a family near us who lost their loved one, whose body arrived yesterday!
I saw a weeping rose flower in our garden yesterday! Its 'tear drop' spoke to me of the shed tears of the families and the concealed tears in their heart that would last for long! A loss and grief is intensely personal! And yet, such distressing news, makes us feel the sorrow of others!
We are travellers through a myriad of experiences!
I had not thought that even flowers can feel our sorrow !
I wish human beings will feel for each other and violence will leave us for ever!
