RELATIONSHIPS

Although proprietary strictures against illicit relationships no longer exist but there is an even stronger onus against them because of their negative impact on the closely inter-meshed society and because of the deleterious effect on personal veracity. On the other hand the piece exhibits a positive feeling of whimsy, wishfulness and playfulness.

Audacious; 1. Daring, often
to a degree that is considered foolish, ready to take dangerous risks.
2. Impertinent, impolite and disrespectful.
This is probably the most significant human characteristic which the dominant
business culture tried to do away with and the one which most contributed
to the resurgence of society after 2500. As such it is highly revered.
