Aaaah!! What a week was it. Things went to all time high to some lows too. Without a doubt the highlight was Team India becoming World champs, what an exhilarating display of courage and sportsmanship. Dhoni showed some fearless leadership and Yuvi providing the power pack punch. Finally India got something to show off at the world stage in sports. In fact this year has been an outstanding one for Indian sports with India becoming Nehru cup winners in football, then winning Asia cup gold in hockey , Sania mirza reaching out to her all time best ranking and finally India winning the Cricket world cup . Truly a Chak De year.
I was talking about this week. Yesterday I was watching all sizes of Ganesh jis being taken for a ride and finally being drowned. The famous Lal baghcha raja was simply beautiful. The statue had the godly grace, simply awesome artwork. This is the first time I saw anything like this. People were dancing like anything in front of the chariots of Ganesh ji. The procession passed through small streets of Mumbai that could accommodate only a rickshaw in best of times but here it was a truck being loaded by number of devotees and a huge Lord Ganesha. I with a couple of friends gathered courage and pushed inside the crowd, reached far enough to get a view of the lord. The place got crowed by the moment soon I felt as if I have became a wave in the ocean, and I was moving with any will. It was a scary sight as it could have easily led to a stampede but lord was there to save us. The security was good but no security can secure a crowd as big as this and I was wondering how sensitive the situation is, in these troubled times, if an event like this goes on smoothly then it’s a big success for the administration. Thank god militants didn’t target festivals like these or our administration was efficient enough to keep them away.
Was I talking about lows, well those were personal ones , with my girl punching me everywhere ,dont ask me why I have this black shade on my eyes
