Mentor

A mentor...

Is a master
who molds
his student
to become
a master like him.

Have you meet your mentor?

    You are wise. The student almost always becomes the master. I remember the day, always will, when my mentor told me there was little else he could teach me.
    I was sad, hearing those words. You are an excellent writer to have written this! ! xxElysabeth
