Sometimes mentoring occurs when we least expect it. Today I will share with you a conversation that have impacted my life.
Although my father and I never grew up in the same home together I knew who he was throughout my life. He showed me love the best way he knew how and after 30+ years of distance and silence from one another we met. I was introduced to my two brothers from his current marriage after divorcing my mother when he was young. I introduced him to my wife and his only grandchildren and his wife told us both, 'there is no way that anyone can deny that you are NOT his son. You talk alike, think alike and you even have the same books in your library and did not even know it.
Dad what can you tell me about your life?
What was it like when you were growing up in the 50s?
Was integrating the school good for us?
Will you please share some wisdom with me while I can still here your voice?Let's talk about it! • A podcast on Anchor
