Is it a reflection of a fact of life that "Barriers with a door" is better accepted by Society than "No Barriers at all"? Does such a concept provide a sense of security and comfort to Society ? - although on deeper analysis it clearly does not make sense at all. <br /><br />Games people play.Damunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5653188975343905818.post-54965988891404914032012-02-12T10:19:55.132+05:302012-02-12T10:19:55.132+05:30Thanks a heap, Gauri and Shubhranka.Thanks a heap, Gauri and Shubhranka.Santanu Sinha Chaudhurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15062744470522359652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5653188975343905818.post-72751089191989055142012-02-11T20:02:10.969+05:302012-02-11T20:02:10.969+05:30I also like the idea of the special font style you...I also like the idea of the special font style you have used to narrate the story.
