New Delhi gets bombed...

http://www.cnn.com/

If you get the chance/time, go there and look at the breaking news item. A terror strike has occurred in India's capital of Delhi early Saturday morning US time, Saturday evening Indian time. At least 55 people have been killed, and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh believes it is the work of terrorists. Of course, nobody knows at this time.

My first thought after hearing this news, was of my cousin - he moved to New Delhi and devoted his life to doing charity work and volunteer work. The thought that he may possibly have been affected by these bombings was just too much for me to handle. Unfortunately, I received no news about him all morning. Finally, we heard from him, that he was all right; the bombings had taken place just 1 kilometer from where he lives (for those who don't know, 1 kilometer is a little less than a mile...1 mile is approximately 1.6 kilometers).

My thoughts and prayers are with all those who were affected by these bombings either physically or emotionally, and I can only pray that the loved ones of those who passed in these bombings will, with the strength of friends and family, come out of this tragedy.

::sigh:: ... what's happening to the world? =(
