		<title>My Mentors and what they mean to me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last Friday, I was on day 2 of our John Maxwell training: Developing the Leader Within You.
One portion of the training discussed mentoring. We discussed the importance of leaders being mentors. This allows the mentor to &#8220;replicate&#8221; himself (and do more) at the same time allows the mentee (the person being mentored) to grow in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Easter Exercise for your Happy Heart!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a funny Easter reflection story I picked up from my father over the Easter celebration.
I love hearing my father&#8217;s stories which he tells us with much gusto. He&#8217;s half smiling the whole-time he&#8217;s telling the story, half winking and looking for approval laughter from his family, his captive audience. I seriously think he has [...]]]></description>

I got the article from my brother who sent it to us siblings with the message: &#8220;This is poignant&#8221;.
I replied with this message:
