KEEP THE BEAUTY INSIDE???





See our fence? It still gives me the creeps every time I look at it! There is this strange dichotomy in India. I posted earlier the pictures of our beautiful yard. However, no one can actually see it unless they are allowed inside our gate. So I guess the goal is to keep the beauty INSIDE your garden walls. The shards of glass are meant to keep out "undesirables". Most fences, which are actually concrete walls here, are topped off with either glass or barbed wire. So there are all these beautiful gardens hidden away from public view. I think it's a shame, especially when our only other viewing option is all the trash and garbage strewn along the roads and highways.
