Mumbai, a city that can be described through so many adjectives, Also definitions, Some To which many may not agree, Some to which people blindly believe. One of it being the "Spirit of Mumbai"
I know this topic is a little Late or Maybe "out of the box" To be discussed Now, But i did not want to wait for another bomb blast or a terrorist attack to wake me up from my otherwise chilling with the shizz subconscious mind.to write on it. I've always had this thought in my mind and i would elaborate it better over here.
Firstly what exactly do people mean when they say the "Spirit of Mumbai".
Secondly, till what level will the people self-console themselves into Believing that Our city Will stand back on its feet every time it goes down.
Thirdly, Why are the people "Moving on" When what they actually need to do is "kick them in their balls and not take any shit"
I strongly condemn and get irritated when after every bomb blast (sad to use the term every because yeah, Mumbai has seen a lot of shit lately) People get back to work the next day and the media/government/your neighbour Calls it "the spirit of mumbai". Knock knock, Whose there? Reality check! Its not their spirit, they're not left with choice! People surely get out of their houses the next day to resume back to where they started from, But that is only because they can't possibly sit at home watch news and miraculously hope their monthly salary gets credited in their accounts. This term has brought people to a point where they actually feel proud about how they stand back on their feet whenever a terrible attack happens. Of course you are brave and are ready to face whatever may come, But have you given a thought on why do we even have to instigate this particular "spirit" of ours? why cant we Show our spirit in other forms/ways? why just show it after a bomb blast?
why Call yourself Brave when inside you know how scared you are, why not question the security around you? why not question the government? why not question as to why and how frequently these attacks are taking place? Just because you are a common man with no opinion which will taken into account for? In fact if even 1 person starts questioning about the happenings around us, i am sure 10 others will follow. The Anna Hazaare Movement was a big example of how much "spirit" we have in us,unfortunately, we let that spark in us fade out soon. Unfortunately people prefer to "move on". So do i, I am not some social activist, i agree saying is easier than being done, but at least do not carry a "Chalta hai" attitude on your sleeve. God forbid tomorrow it can be your loved one who is a victim will you still get up the next morning and brag about how amazing the spirit of Mumbai is?
My point here is, Stop Taking Shit from others, Start Questioning, Stop telling how beautiful your city is when you know its screaming for help inside. do something for that Amazing mumbai which gave you what you are today. And Dear terrorists, How spineless can you be? Attacking a city which you know will not complain, how about attacking yourself with some of that Nuclear shit you carry? That way you get Jihaad and you enjoy with your fellow companions in hell! So simple isn't it?
Mumbai Is a Beautiful City, The people are amazing, so is the life, In fact Mumbai brings out the life in you, Don't let a bunch of spineless mongrels snatch away the beauty of it. Show your spirits in helping someone who needs you when they are robbed, show your spirit when someone wants your help when someone on the road is mercilessly being killed, show your spirit when someone is screaming for help and you stand there as a witness! Show your spirits at the right places and your city will be a wonderful place to live in :)
God bless Mumbai :)
