The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. – Proverbs 10:11
Are you a mentor or a tormentor?
Are you a bottle opener or a bottle neck?
Are you nourishing the gifts of others or negating them because you’re afraid of becoming irrelevant?
Are you showing the way or blocking the way?
Are you nurturing your students or neutering them?
Are you shining a light or shunning the light that you see in their eyes?
Are you the giant whose shoulders can be stood upon, or the giant whose feet come to trample on the dreams of those beneath you?
Are you a mentor or a tormentor?
If you’re not being one, then you’re probably being the other.
