Dear Friend, This is the last thing you should do.... start accepting things as it is. I am currently living in Singapore and came to Mumbai recently and was appalled by the condition, more so because people there feel as if it is OK, and have accepted these things. I was astonished when people still say there is no place like Mumbai and things like if you stay in Mumbai you cannot leave it as you will start liking it. I think this is one myth we can do without. When people die in Train bomb blasts and come back the next day to board the train we say its the spirit of people of Mumbai whereas it clearly shows how we value human lives and how much pressure there is on common people that they have to put their lives on line. Same is the case with rains. In the end I believe that you get what you deserve and not what you desire and by accepting all these things we make sure that we deserve this. Let's get together and make it clear to everyone, including our Politicians and the city administrators,that this is not the Mumbai we want,we can still have all the good things of Mumbai without having all the bad things (these are not mutually exclusive. But more than this lets be ready to make the sacrifices that are required to make it a heaven in reality and not only in our biased vision. Hope someday we can make it happen. Don;t loose that hope
