First off, apologies to those I’ve offended by the singular reason of choosing this title. Those that have some bit of struggle articulating the ‘th’ sound, worse if you have ‘rhotacism’ - the inability to pronounce ‘r’.

I think where I’ve been taught the hardest of lessons this past one year has been on Cupid’s forte. After what seemed like a protracted misadventure, it is easy to turn off all receptors and kick in the heels in defeat - I tried to, but somehow I’m simply not cut from that defeatist fabric.
