The importance of human relationships in the modern world

 

I am sure you will agree that to create, nurture and grow a relationship, we need trust, transparency, honesty, respect, love and most important, communication. Try removing one of these and see what happens to your relationship.

In our day and age, where we spend less time meeting people face to face, and more time socializing virtually (sometimes not even with real people) how does one focus on making and maintaining relationships? Life is short.

If we spend most of our time just educating ourselves, working, pursuing our passions and living our lives just because …? Well, we all have different reasons and purposes for doing what we do. But whatever our reasons maybe, in the end, is anyone going to remember our achievements, the work we did, the positions we held, the money we made, the type of cars we drove, or the brand of clothes we wore?
