Sipra's Diary: 9/112019 Was it a day for clapping?

          

Yesterday  (9/11) I went up, as usual, to the Lincoln centre for my morning walk. As I proceeded towards the fountain I noticed audience, artists and musical instruments. I stood up there and became a part of the audience.
More than 100 professional dancers, all in white dresses took part under the guidance of a dance company The group -dance presented the tragedy in physical expression excellently, The program continued from 8:30 to  8 45.with one minute silence.

So far was good.. I startled when the audience started clapping in praise of the artists at the end.  I felt so bad. Is this day of national tragedy, a day of an assault to humanity is appropriate for clapping?
..........It is surprising that people forget the occasion, the reason, the significance of the day; of their 

gathering! Most of the audience were white people ;some of them were morning walkers and became part of the audience like me; but ARTISTS were mostly multi-national as I guessed from  their  appearance and names  except three or four.

(Continued.)....

               Another stained  9/11 stepped in the ; in American history I wrote the above article last  year.  Last night I asked my daughter that why  I don't see the  rotating lighting from the WTC in memory of the 9/11 as past years? 

My daughter informed that lighting is still there but we couldn't see because we have shifted to the other side . 

Today right at 8: 47 I heard music of bell from the neighborhood  church; Again at 9: 15 the same recorded   instrumental  music. In.  the sad and terrible memory of the two flights that hijacked the WTC

It seems this black spot has been fade from the mind of the most New Yorkers other than those who have lost  their near and dear ones  quickly . .Blessed are those who have the power of forgetting and to stand on the present .But I am on the opposite side of the pole. . Perhaps I walk back  step .I am unable to forget 

such deep-rooted scar. 

I will publish the renewed  edition of the same blog every year as tribute to the memory.

People are more emotional about "BLACK  LIVES MATTER"  hilghting  the police brutality . and racial cruelty. Ocean is lost in the desert but the dewdrop sustains !

This is the loophole of democracy;  it is the open platform of  so called demo-crazy  people to bargain ,to exploit  at the cost of greater cause.
