We have heard and seen enough. Too many innocent lives have been lost, too much innocent blood has been spilt, too many children orphaned. The echoes of screams and the muffled explosions still ring in our ears and make us look behind our shoulders for reassurance. How many more deaths, explosions, conspiracies will it take for us to realise that we cannot always fall back on our resilience, on the spirit of the people to bounce back to our feet? This very resilience is being tested severely at this juncture.
www.abillionhands.com is about you, me and all of us. It is a platform for us to come together and express some of the anger and anguish we felt over the last few days. To express some of the frustration and helplessness that we felt. And above all, it is a platform for us to come together, to debate how each one of us can make a difference.
It would be a mistake to see this as a site only about the Mumbai terror strike. Mumbai is just one of several hundred terror struck places in the world. It's happened in the US, UK, Europe, South East Asia. And the result is always the same – death of innocent people, and uncalled for damage.
Now is the time for all of us to come together to ensure these horrors don't get lost in endless political debates, and then forgotten. Let's join hands at www.abillionhands.com for a better tomorrow. This site is for us and by us. All of us share a common dream of a better, safer and stronger World. Let us nurture this dream and take steps to make it
