Providence Dating Coach Success Series – Changing Dishonest Dating Culture
Isn't it time to change the dishonest dating culture? Have we had enough of men and women pretending to be something they're not when dating a new potential partner? Why do honesty and dating concepts rarely intersect? Does anybody really enjoy finding out that eight months later, the person they are dating has nothing to do with the person they first met? Why are we so afraid to show others who we really are? Is it because many of us do not know the answer to the question, Who Am I?

Music and Memory – Alive Inside
Music has been a part of my life since early childhood, like many of us. I remember when my dad used to bring me home 45s of The Beatles, and I was ecstatic. The next stage in my musical connection developed in adolescence through my teen years. Like many teenagers, music was the heart and soul of my life and one of the few places I felt safe and understood.

Like any "good student" who wants to prove to his mentor just how good a student he is, I left her and directly went to buy a copy of the book.
