In reply to suzie Cheel. Thanks Suzie. I hate it when innocent people get caught in the crossfires of others. The worst part is the actual culprits often get away with it because the generalization dilutes the actual issue.

Vatsala I am with you that mentors are so important at all stages of our life. My thoughts on the #metoo movement are as yours and I dislike how often innocent people get lumped in with the perpetrators.
I often feel for the many women who “hate” men and I have friends or used to like that who can never forgive

In reply to Heather. Kindness is important, Heather. So is empathy.

In reply to CK Kochis. Thanks Cindy. When the #metoo movement broke out, I knew there would be innocent people too who would be made targets of vendetta but sexual harassment is common in the workplace and quite often the mechanisms in place don't function the way they should. Still, I'm hoping the results of the survey are a bleep and by next year things will be back to normal. We can all do with a good mentor at any stage in life.

You highlight a lot of valuable points, including the #metoo movement that rocked the world. I’ve been blessed to have several mentors that help me through life’s more difficult moments and periods of personal growth. In regards to the workplace, I cannot state that anyone stands out as a mentor. This is a well-written article, Vatsala. As always, I look forward to reading your pearl of wisdom.
