Forgiveness is a powerful thing. Not only to make the other person feel good. But to heal you. Choose to forgive now.

When you have been with your mentee long enough you will see them make mistakes. Mentoring isnt about fixing those mistakes, its about standing in solidarity through the mistake.
You wont have all the answers and that's ok. Being there sometime is enough.
