Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who ordains that every one of us has to be a doctor, an engineer, a professor or a chartered accountant? Who decides? Even an ordinary citizen with average intelligence is an essential part of the larger society…’ That speaks sum and substance of the book. A simple narrative can often convey a deeper message if it can touch the cords of heart. When the storm brews up in the horizon or a squirrel fails to cross the road or the sulking girl suddenly gets a gift from beau, the heart sings. Melody of that song is universal; it surpasses the boundary of area, culture and language.
