unreported news!

Was another routine day at office. Went out with Sriram and Vinayak for lunch. Vinayak mentioned about someone who saw a scary incident while he was driving to South Jersey.

There were two cars in front of him on a freeway and all looked normal untill suddenly a woman was thrown into the road from the car in the front. She was naked from her hip down. Owing to its speed on freeway, the car in front could not stop suddenly and it ran over this lady's leg! After running over, this car skided and pulled over realizing that he had run over a human being. But this friend of my colleague could not bear the scene(!) and decided not to stop making sure he maneuvered his car without running over her again.. and thus away from her and into the routine day to day affairs which we are all programmed to do.

I am very very disturbed after hearing this. My friend mentioned that she had black hair and could probably be an Indian. When it is an unfortunate incident, it becomes more and more relevant when it happens to someone who is dear to you or atleast near to you, isn't it? I dont know whether it was the probability of her being an Indian which moved me. I pray I could be moved more for the reason that she is another fellow human being, an unfortunate sister..

My heart goes out to her.. Apart from all the emotional and sympathetic outbursts she would receive, I pray she gets proper medical attention, I sincerely pray and hope her legs could walk again, ánd that her spirits could again lift her out of this black day in her life back into her tunes of life among her dear ones.. My thoughts are with you dear sister. Get well soon...
