Right...but how will this help me get a date?

I am really impressed with how you guys worked together and solved some very difficult problems.  Well done.

For the next two weeks we'll be looking at how principles of freedom affect the actual world we live in.  This week we'll be looking at relationships.  Relationships are interesting because a lot of people assume they're automatic, but they can fall apart if not nurtured and they function best when we keep the principles they're based on.  For example, trust is a vital principle for a healthy relationship.  Healthy boundaries, personal development and interest in the other person's interests are all principles that make relationships happy.

We all have relationships with ourselves, others, and God.  This week we'll focus on our relationships with ourselves and with others.  To prepare for class, do the following:
