    Thank you, dear Dr. Prabha Shetty, for sparing your precious time and share your view points on Personality Disorders. Very useful and important topic in these challenging times. There is so much to impart with our community and our country as and when we visit Mangalore. Its always a joy to spend our time wisely in Mangalore because there are so many new generations sprouting in our neighbourhood with so many intellectual minds ready to listen to us and learn from us. At the same time we learn so much from them too. Do come to Mangalore often and give us the benefit of your company and your valuable advice. Thanks also to Daijiworld for publishing so much of home news so professionally. It makes us feel so home sick when we see all the lovely photographs of our own home from a long distance.
