Odds are, if you picked up this book that you and I have a lot in common with one another. You more than likely live your day-to-day life going through motions that you learned long ago, having somehow lost sight of the man that you once believed that you would someday become. I lived almost as much of my life pretending that "I had it all figured out" as I have realizing that I wasn't even close.

It took a lot for me to see that the answers I was seeking were for questions that didn't matter much anyway, and the that few lessons that were of importance were the ones that were staring me in the face all along. I had a coach and tutor. And although there were many times that I felt lost and without my bearing, I came to discover that my mentor was beside me all along...keeping me on course and moving in the right direction. My mentor and his lessons brought me back home to the place that I am today. And I can show you how to do the same, for I have no desire to keep his wisdom a secret. The truth, I have come to find is a gift to be shared. The Mentor is the story of an ordinary man's understanding of relationship. It is an honest look at our attachment to our mothers and our bond with our fathers. It is a study in how we co-create a loving union with our chosen partner. It is a glance at how we form a connection with whatever it is that we individually define to be god, and ultimately how we create the most important relationship of all... The Mentor is a story of how we live and how we love and how we share ourselves authentically with the universe. Join The Mentor and me on an extraordinary journey through an ordinary life of a 21st century man. And just maybe, along the way, you might find what it is that you have been searching for all along too.

Happy Birthday my love!!!! I went from Kennebunkport to San Diego and all I got you was this stupid poem. πŸ˜‚ 😝 πŸ˜† πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

"I once loved a girl with long crimson hair. I feared she might break me, but I didn't much care.

Her skin it was ivory and her eyes were deep blue...she opened her arms like a Christian might do.

We learned how to love with the innocence of youth. We sang of the banner, and practiced the truth.

Our star-spangled passion was one for the ages. We dog-eared our book as we turned all the pages.

We faced difficult battles together as one. Our commitment to each other would not be undone.

We fought off her father, and sent him back east. Across that great ocean, we pushed back that beast.

As adolescence escaped us, and adulthood crept in... Her porcelain matured to a more olive skin.

But our love it was strong, so it didn't seem strange. We knew the only constant in life...was change.

We raised loving children from sea to shining sea. Were the envy of all others. The family they longed to be.

We led by example, not edict or force. We practiced our ethics, and plotted our course.

So as the red faded, and her locks they turned grey...nobody noticed....or at least didn't say.

And when her eyes changed from bright baby blue... my brothers condoned it... "That's just what eyes do".

Yes, change is a given..."it's just what things do." I know right from wrong, and I'd bet you do too.

Yet today, as her copper bust is overlooking the coast.... I dreamt my true love had turned into a ghost.

An apparition or a phantom of a dream we once had. A reminder to all, that "good" can turn "bad".

Was our edict and constitution merely a ruse? The path she has taken, is nothing we'd choose.

Am I foolish to hold tight to the pacts that we'd made? To have faith and conviction in the price that we'd paid?

But "NO!" I exclaim, as if awaking from a terror. Everything that we stand for, cannot be in error!

If there's one thing I know of this woman I love..."Good"...it'll win. We will rise above.

So, on her 248th birthday...as I tell you our tale.... Let us never forget. Lady Liberty will prevail.
