There’s just one week left in our exciting course to help you find influential friends. Be sure to meet us back here for the last course and we can’t wait to see you graduate into a world full of people just waiting for your friendship.

Parallel Principle : Step up boldly. 

: : 

People admire bravery and most people would be enthusiastic to have a person who has demonstrated true bravery as a friend. As you go out into the world, or even venture to other worlds, find your boldness and be prepared to do what is necessary to protect yourself and loved ones, and to persevere goodness in your environment. There are times to be quiet and to let others do their thing, but you have to learn to recognize when it is your turn to stand boldly for the things you care about.  Influential people will notice and they will admire your bravery.

There’s only one issue left. It’s a bittersweet, mostly sweet, end to a fantastic volume of the PRL Serials. Do not miss it!

This week:

Thursday and the Idiot days face Monday and the Idiots in black on a chase out of Houston. Will Monday catch up to them? And if she does, what happens next? 

The Black Man Who Was Thursday: “They caught the train just before it departed, and they watched Monday and the Idiots in black either chase the train on foot or jump into cars or onto motorcycles.”

Ariel is a star in the making. She’s a natural talent, beautiful and hard working, no wonder Jess Mess is so happy to have signed her. It’s all a dream come true for Ariel who wonders if she’ll wake up soon. 

The Divine Essence: “Ariel is in a dream. She has just emerged from the studio and she heads to the first floor restaurant for a late breakfast. She’s been in the studio for almost twenty-four hours, with short breaks to use the bathroom or to grab a snack. She has not paused to eat anything substantial, and she has a large water bottle to quench her thirst that she keeps with her.”

Seraphiel is gearing up for his Sunday night performance at the Third Heaven music festivals. Check out this interview before the big show! 

Third Heaven (One-Shots): “Even though anticipation for Third Heaven is always high and tickets are always impossible to find, the excitement for this year’s festival is higher than ever. Demand for access to the first performance by Seraphiel in over a decade is extremely high and for the first time in the history of the festival, a pay per view livecast will be available on streaming services.”

Lincoln is a musician too, and he is still in his formative years. He’s learning more about the man behind the name Afonso and he’s less than impressed. 

Sun of the Morning: “I know his name wasn’t Afonso. He took it from the circus I heard, that was his act. He pretended to be the king of the Kongo for a bunch a white people. Imagine, them people believed that high yellow man was from Africa! But he definitely wasn’t white so I guess racism made him believable.”

Max continues the Shuffle as a mother and wife tries to find time to enjoy herself. Of course the soundtrack to a good time is a Bad Bunny song. 

Shuffle:  “Traffic was thick after five in the afternoon, but Antonia was determined to get home and she took back roads that the gps of her smartphone helped her to navigate. Her phone started to ring and she groaned out loud as she answered.”

Tamarvan is back in Ladoga and his dark plans are taking shape. He tries to enjoy his high school reunion, but he drinks too much to have a good time. Thank God for Viv. 

A Misguided Solution: “Accounts of the Ladoga High School reunion for the graduating class to which Tamarvan Barnes belonged, tell of a pretty standard affair. It took place in the high school gymnasium and when it was over, a handful of the attendees went to a large house in the woods of west Ladoga where they lit a bonfire and continued their celebration until the early morning.”
