One word: inspiring

The spark that lit the fire within me

You threaded the needle for me

And then you let me fly.

To call you a  mentor

Would be a bit far-stretched

Seeing as how we've never met

But you're the closest to a mentor

That I've ever had.

In a way, you've taught me what works

Together,

And what needs to go their separate ways.

Fashion is a passion.

It's always been inside of me.

However, you helped me realize

Different possibilities within the wardrobe

And that anything is actually possible.

You've inspired and given me hope.

Thank you, Mandi.
