Cuz one day when she goes, she’s gone

My dog doesn’t recognize me. Or if she does she’s playing coy.

My parents are watching CNN.

My brother welcomed me at the airport.

And there’s no snow.

Its like I’ve stepped into another universe. Except I still can’t work the remote, so some things never change.

I finished reading Stephen King’s Blaze today on the plane. It was a great read and one of the things that struck me most when reading was this overall theme of mentoring. In the novel this existed in good and bad ways, but it was compelling to read how the main characters life was shaped by those around him, which is very much the case for us too in our everyday lives.

As I waited for the plane to taxi on runway after finishing the book I thought of all the people who have had a great impact on my life, who made me see things from a different angle, challenged me fully. There are a standout few who definitely make the top five. If I can recover from the time difference I’ll get my stuff together and post on one tomorrow.

What about you?
