I want to share with you what an affect being Being a mentor has had on me this year! When I decided to sign on as a mentor at the local elementary school and I have to admit I was a bit worried about how the girls would take to me and how to initially break the ice. Luckily I didn't have to.
At the first meeting I was hugged by all of my three girls and I realized that this was going to help me just as much as it would them. Now every time I see my girls I am thrilled to hear what they have been up to since our last meeting. We don't talk about school or work, we just simply enjoy each other's company. It’s nice to make a difference in someone’s day, even if its just a much needed hug.
I hope this will inspire you to consider taking time to become a mentor or simply give back in some way to your community. Believe me, you’ll be glad you did!
