Do You Mentor?

On my tiny property, below, in a small working-class neighborhood I create myriad garden scenes in denial of time, budget, location. Along with a passion for Garden Design, Providence gave me mentors from the last of an era, the Stoics. Their mentoring comes with a hunger to pass it along. Barbara Allen mentored me. She died yesterday.

  1. It sounds like Barbara lives on, though!

    Mentoring - I probably mentor more than I realize, as I somehow find out later. It always has a soothing effect when I find out how someone has been influenced!

    In fact, it melts away bad experiences with uppity types who dislike and do not want to learn.

  2. So for the loss of one of your true Norths.
