26/11 - MY TRIBUTE

This video is my tribute to 26/11.

I haven't been able to come terms with it yet and I find my words choking inside me. Someday I will write my own song to commemorate this day but till then I’d let Lennon speak for me…

Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion too

Imagine all the people, Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer, But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us, And the world will be as one

Also read this amazing story of a survivor - Michael Pollack 's story

It begins "innocuously, with a dinner reservation in a world-class hotel. It ends 12 hours later after the Indian army frees" them

Their interview is here:

I loved that part where both Pollack and his wife Anjali reiterated the selflessness of the people around them (irrespective of their religion, nationality) at the time of the mayhem. Anjali summed it up and said it is time for us to come together as a world to fight terrorism so that the people who have laid their lives for us to live haven't done so in vain.
