Mentors

"reaching for stars" by bell atlantic


Mentors

It is an always-present journey,
embarking upon the seas of knowledge.
The expanse of unknown territories of experience stretches endlessly.

We think our hearts and minds unprepared for such great depths:
purpose, language, and meaning.
Yet our Creator does not leave us ill-equipped.

There are guides all along the fragile pathway.
These mentors challenge and encourage,
always reflecting glimpses of divinity in
glimpses of hope and handfuls of grace.

*I wrote this in honor of a few special mentors in my life - and also because I'm broke and thought one of those mentors (who is also one of my bosses) would like it as a belated Christmas gift.
