The world seems to constantly echo with

a disconcerting chorus of voices,

the result of frustrated relationships between parents

and their children, husbands and wives,

friends, siblings, in-laws, employees and colleagues

—individuals disillusioned with themselves

for not being able to relate successfully

to their environs.

The most interesting aspect of this scenario is that,

today there happens to be no dearth of methods

to arrive at that elusive "success" in the act of relating.
