I recently have had an experience of feeling that someone was totally and completely in my corner. Now let me be clear I have many friends and family members that are always wanting the best for me, but this experience was different. It was like a boxer going into the corner while fighting a fight and being talked to by a coach, an actor disappearing into a role because they are trusting their director, a mentor leading a young child. I have always looked for mentors, people I respected tremendously that I perceived as being further down the path of evolution than me in one form or another. It is unbelievably rewarding. I think we are a generation that forgets about mentors, true teachers, and unfailing coaches. We think if we just do a quick google search and watch a few YouTube videos we will get the gist...but we will be missing the connection. I have found that being in the very presence of this coach to be inspiring, I find watching the way they handle things to be illuminating, and when they are in my corner wanting me to jump to the next level I feel invincible. I know they will provide wisdom if I fail, and I feel more fearless in flying. We all need people in our corner.
