Does a mentor necessarily know he's being a mentor?
#5
But Mentos are always the fresh mint.

But some people are just kind and giving people, who like to give back to their community.

As an example, my portrait and business management instructor while I was studying photography Is Seattle's most prominent portraitist. He is 4th generation, and has photographed every president since Ike for example. (he is about 80 now) He is a good friend of the head instructor, and he enjoys teaching and mentoring the students. Lord knows he doesn't need the money he gets as a part time community college instructor. He does it out of love for the craft, and for the sheer enjoyment of working with young hopefull photographers. And a few of us have done very well because of the help, and most importantly, the attitude he imparted into us that we are in business first, and photographers second.
