Remember the discussion where you said you didn't have any role models? Or that you didn't really believe in that concept? This took place on GC a few years ago. Isn't it funny how you may have come "full circle"?
ETA: Yes, I do mentor someone (from a distance/indirectly). She is a junior in college now. I met her when she was a Freshman here at the school. At her HS graduation '99 she said, "I want to be just like you, Ms. AKA2D."
I am very proud of her. We keep in contact regularly. I usually send her a few dollars here and there during the semester. She has her own car, works, has a decent GPA, and has gotten involved in community service.
She is the first in her family to get this far. She has 2 little sisters who she is striving to help once she completes college. It is my intent to make sure she "stays on the right path" to complete this endeavor. Becoming her "mentor" just happened. It wasn't something I was looking to become.
