Hello One & All,
I've just come through the Best weekend ever :) There has been some major ups/downs in my life and now the Karma swing appears to be on the UP Side.
For several Years now I've been friends with a wonderful man who owns our Favourite dating site. I've pitched in for yrs over at the site. My friends work there and I have some wonderful friends among the millions of members. (both past and present.) Several years back my friend the Founder of the site and I sat down and discussed the future of the site. How to bring about change that will help members and employees alike. I have lost count of the time I devoted to the site..and friends of mine who have worked so hard to help members with time and advice. We did it because we cared and not because we hoped to gain something for ourselves but to try and create a happy, fun filled environment at the site where all members can enjoy themselves and have such a good time they'll keep coming back and convince their friends to join too.
Fast forward past the darkness of the Prince Not So Charming Scandal..and to the past week..I received a message from a gentleman in recruiting about considering a job with the site. For all these yrs I have said I am The Founders Intern/Cheerleader and happy to remain so. I did not need to be paid. I do not work for money. I am lucky in that respect. I followed up with a phone call and had the BEST interview I've ever had.
I really enjoyed it and the challenge. I had not asked for this job..I was asked if I wanted to consider it and become a part of this great website's team. I am so flattered and honoured. He told me how great I did at the interview and he seemed very impressed with me and my honesty. My name is moving forward in the interview process. I have owned my own businesses, worked for a bank and grocery/dept stores . At this point in my life I can afford to concentrate on my writing. I am blessed to have thousands of fans of my erotica.
That same night a friend of mine suggested I consider becoming a BeachBody fitness coach. I work out 4 times a day every day..I try to motivate my friends and people I meet so they can have and share positive healthy feelings with others. I love to see people smile/feel good and try to help folks feel better about themselves. I truly believe in helping others as I've been blessed. I act, I write, I volunteer. Paying it Forward is the code I live by. I truly think Karma turned around and swung in my direction for good.
Thank you to everyone for believing in me and my talent. (whichever talent of mine you like, many thanks.) Thank you for not giving up even when I almost did. Thank you to my thousands of fans,followers and friends. If the job does not pan out..well that is OK too. I will always be The Founders # 1 Intern/Cheerleader and #1 Fan of our site/employees. The honour of being asked to consider this position is one of the greatest things that ever happened to me. I will always be grateful and forever & always happy.
I owe you more then I can say. Thank you Karma.
xoxo,
Maureen

Hello wildangel,
DeleteThank you for finding me via Pinterest. Thank you for sharing your thoughts/feelings. I love my "Feelings" board there and am so happy to hear that you can relate to what I felt when I shared the pins. I hope you've never had to deal with a fake Prince or friend like I did. If you did, then I am sorry and hope that like me, you've learned something even from them. I try to turn even a negative into a positive. In this we move on and move forward while those who hurt us stay stuck in their own pile of the crap they made of their own lives. Hence the infamous # Hashtag #ByeRicky #NoMoreFakePrinceCharmings.
Happy Mon & Hope you have an awesome week ahead of you, Thanks for reaching out,
Hugs,
Maureen
Hello Maureen,
DeleteYes i have had my own share of "fake" crocodiles in life, been there faced them and still facing them. It sometimes feels hard to struggle through this life, but them its my battle who else could fight it better than me? that's what keeps me going..
I don't usually relate to people so soon... but then for months i kept seeing your pins and they just touch me deep inside. I do relate to your feelings and your pins soothe me. Feels good to have someone to relate to.
Have a great week ahead ;) Thanks for replying back :)
Hugs,
Wildangel
Wildangel,
DeleteHello & Happy WED :) Thank you for your comments/compliments. I am sorry to hear you've been through the same wringer with "fake crocodiles" too. You are so right. Who else is better in this fight then YOU ? I thought the man in my life was one of my Best friends as he was always telling me I was his only friend..then the worst happened and the truth came out and 9 + yrs of lies came down on him. With the Pins I am able to share my feelings and our experiences so whatever feeling a person might be in need of is among those pins. I am glad the pins can give you a feeling of peace and solidarity.
Happy Wed & Keep Thinking Positive,
Hugs,
Maureen
