Deconstruction as a theory may make one understand that words and meanings do not give the same significance to all. It is because as we construct a system and make a set of words prevail, and here, allowing them to play does not actually turn out to be a play without any restriction. This study brings out the fact that words and meanings depend on the freedom given by the individual as he conceives it or assimilates it. The development of meaning is conditioned by the voluntary endeavour of restricting the meaning or allowing a wider boundary as per the individual's necessity. It also explains how this system is controlled by individuals whose preferences, expectations, imagination or fear play a vital role.
