On the topic of guru vs. mentor.......

On the topic of guru vs. mentor.......


Magnetic Fields : "I don't believe you"

Check the line:

You seemed to be in love with me

Which isn't very realistic...

so delightfully cynical...
Thanks B-dis for turning me their way. :)


This is my weekend for thinking of others.

Memorial today for a colleague and mentor.
Memorial on Sunday for an instructor that influenced my life.

Saturday i am off to visit a courageous young man fighting to maintain his fragile sense of balance.


To lead is to serve. - Thanks Sully - words of wisdom.


I am a reluctant leader, a recalcitrant server.


i hope everyone who has read this far (all three of you!) (okay, two) take a moment on the weekend to reflect on mentors and their place and value in our lives.



not gurus -



















mentors













It's been my experience that having a mentor doesn't take much more than a willingness to listen and learn.

i am appreciative of the mentors i have had.

the Shins "Turn on Me"


You had to know that I was fond of you,
Fond of Y-O-U.
So I took your lips at the time,
And to change like that is just so hard to do,
Hard to do.
Don't let it whip-crack your life,
And bow out from the fight.......
From the new home of the Terry Fox Family, Chilliwack BC, - go make a difference this weekend......
