I couldn't make it to Gateway of India or the Taj Hotel yesterday evening but as I was walking home I saw a couple of people lighting candles outside a college. As I signed up and lit the candle for those who lost their lives in the terrorist attack, a line from a trinket that once hung from my car's dashboard came to my mind:

When prayers go up, blessings come down.

All of us have sent prayers. I hope the blessings won't take long to come down.
