PLAYING WITH FIRE
doing something dangerous or risky that could cause lots of problems for you

He knew he was playing with fire by encouraging her attentions.

Here in our country, when children play with fire, we always scold them. Many a home have been burnt because of their playing with matchboxes, and not only that, some children have been roasted together with their grandmas and older siblings who had tried to save them.

It is such a difficult task to prevent people from playing with fire.

Even adults do -- when a man or a woman cheats on the spouse, thinking that there is nothing wrong with a skin to skin contact, or even changing love-doveys with them in some dimly-lit nightclubs.

The attraction, the temptation is very great especially if one has a very powerful position and can impose his or her will on the other.

I think playing with fire becomes most dreaded when the highest official decides "to go to bed" with a country-enemy of the people. He is courting evil. Once, he lets that person into the inner sanctum of the secrets of the country, then that would be the end of the sovereignty of that country. And who knows what will happen to the writing of the history of the people.

There are many things that can happen and they are frightening. The secret agents of the country-enemy would be free to roam around, access files freely, move about as if they own the land.

The possibilities of the impossibles before are endless.

Perhaps we shall no longer call her the land of milk and honey but the land of spies and hackers.

Meanwhile, some people think they could play it by ear. "Let us see what will happen. We can always put up barriers...But then could people have enough time to do that? Remember the game venue has changed -- the master ruling the game is under the influence of the game-changer.
