Terrible event, but as always, there's pockets of good news and strong will.

Both are great reads, and the acts are inspiring in so many ways. I remember reading an article about the hotel staff member who ran out with the 2 year old child of the rabbi and his wife who were killed at the Chabad House puttting her life at danger for the life of a 2 yr old child. As much as these attacks make you really think negative about humanity, as much as it depresses me that this stuff is a real part of the world, you realize there is some beauty left in humanity. I think stories like this regain some faith in humanity after it is torn apart.

I actually read something on the Times of India how this whole thing saved a couples marriage... They were in Mumbai for a divorce court appearence, they were staying at the Taj, and they ended up being huddled in the same room together... They decided that they needed each other in the end... Bollywood producers are already on it... haha...
