It happened this week, eight men age 50-60 plus gathered together. Each with very different backgrounds, each who at one time were defined by their career and station in life. One an engineer, another a wall street broker, another a diesel mechanic, a car salesman, and so on. Just what do they all have in common? What brought them together at this time in their lives? Everyone in this group have had to pick themselves up from what had defined them just a few years ago to now change the direction of their lives and begin a new career. On Monday these eight men did not know each other and now have been learning and training together to become professional chauffeurs. Yes it’s true each one of us have joined together to learn and become something different from our past. Each of us have picked ourselves up after many changes and challenges in our lives to continue to move forward. As we help each other learn this new career and a bit about each other, it reminds me what a wonderful experience it is to be among the “Brotherhood of Men”
