It certainly exists and can be goosebump-inducing(like in the case of the trains resuming service within a few hours), but I hate the way it's used as an excuse by politicians, as if we're a bunch of 2-yr olds who're being consoled by the 'grown-up' government about a broken toy:<BR/><BR/>"Aley beta...bomb blast ho gaya...hawww..koi bat nahin...tumhaare paas spirit-of-mumbai hai na..."<BR/><BR/>We travel in trains that are filled to triple capacity. We wade through flooded streets to get home, even as corpses float by. Our roads can give you multiple slipped discs. <BR/><BR/>Delhi eats up all our money, and when it shits, the two pennies that come out are given to us.<BR/><BR/>Correct me if I'm wrong, but after J&K, hasn't Bombay been the victim of most terrorist acts ? <BR/><BR/>Let's set spirit aside and see things for what they really are. Because if we don't, the city shall soon be dead and only our spirits will remain. <BR/><BR/>P.S: <BR/>On an lighter(and less frustrated)note, I'm glad that you like Bombay. We should meet up sometime now that you're here.Ashish Shakyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01962358157043803768noreply@blogger.com
