Well, 2011 has been an amazing year filled with a whole lot of love, laughter, curveballs, serious talks and desicion makings.
I LOVE my job, if I can even call it a job. For the past 8 years, I can say that the passion inside of me to change a man, woman, or child's life and to allow them to live again has changed my perspective in life. Don't get me wrong, we all have our ups and downs, but the most important thing to me is to deliver 101%. I believe that in life, you are worse than a failure if you haven't even attempted to be successful. Give it all you've got. Take risks. Do it big.
I received some really sweet emails recently from higher ups in our Corporation which was also sent to the entire company and WOW I am so so incredibly touched. It's not through anything that I have done and I can' t take credit for inspiring others but I am truly touched and humbled to make somebody's life just a little bit brighter by the simple fact of just being myself and not letting not so good life circumstances be turned into changing peoples lives.
I usually keep a journal of sweet letters and compliments in my diaryjust to brighten up my day when things aren't going so well, but since I've moved on to public blogging I will post some of the recent ones one here.
......
To All,
As someone who is always looking for the right words to say…I want to start the New Year 2012 by taking the time to Thank Melissa Poquiz for her nothing short of Stellar Performance over the past year.
Winning War Boards…Contests…along with placing high on the Top Closers list in the nation. Watching her Team Work, Camaraderie and Support…reminds me of how truly lucky I am!
So…the only correct words I can come up with is THANK YOU!!!
The Best is Yet to Be!!!
A. Regional VP
................................
Thank you Melissa
Not only are you an amazing consultant(can I clone you?), but you are a very good person.
You are friendly, likeable, passionate and truly care about everyone and our clients.
That means the world to me.
Thank you..
If I was closer, I’d give you a big hug and a smooch.
National VP
...............................
Melissa
In the 17 years that I have worked at HC
I have never been more impressed by anyone in this company! You really are a bright star and are so so so very talented! Gina better be damn grateful and blessed to have you! If not, I will punch her! :O)
Regional Sales Manager
....................
gets me all mushy reading this and cannot take credit for anything I do when I TRY giving the best of me to those I care about. God expects this of me and us all, so I will continue to be more loving especially during the toughest of times.
Ok, bedtime. Happy New Year to all.

bLISSYism
Hi!
I'm not quite sure who I'm saying hi to because I really don't have any followers on here. As an avid private blogger, I've decided to go from private journal blogging (used to use my diary app on my iphone)to sharing my blogs.
Those that know me well, know that I love writing in my diary about life; the good days and the tough. I've lost a couple of hard copies...passwords to my Xanga blog...Well, I've probably thrown them away and regret it so hopefully with this bLISSYism blog of mine I'll be able to keep track better. We'll see.
I've always been into reading different blogs as much as I love blog rambling myself - occasionally I have a point I want to share, a memory I want to document, or use the opportunity to write about a new experience. But sometimes, I just need a chance to hang out in my own thoughts.
My ongoing Thoughts - These days, with a 12 month old son, I often find myself wondering about suggestions for diaper rashes, recommendations for pre-schools and daycare, or advice on how to raise a healthy and happy child. For those that are mommies, have you noticed that once you enter mommyville - all conversations abruptly changes to children. Your children. Other people's children. Children. Don't get me wrong - I am GUILTY. Guilty, guilty, guilty.
During the rare times I'm able to do other things I love, I am usually either editing photos, taking photos, reading books...and also have been working full time at the leading hair restoration company...for 8 years now; blessed to be doing a job I love.
I definitely try at least twice a month to have adult conversation outside of working; whether it's a night out with my girls or a night out with my wonderful hubby. We are blessed to have parents that are able to give us those must needed breaks. =)
I came across this blog today with a writing prompt - 10 on the 10th. Think of it like English class - the writing prompt on the 10th of each month is to create a list of 10 - on anything you want
1 - Write at least one journal entry each week that has nothing to do with my kid. Watch out readers, since I'm making this public now.......you might be able to find out more about me. I might not be as candid as I am in my diary..we shall see =)
2 - Conquer and fight for my rights under CFRA law in California with my company...even if it meant getting fired over it.
3 -See real adult people and have real conversations twice a month. This will double my current night out of once a month.
4 - Read bedtime stories to Darin every night
5 - Really pray often for those in need and pray with Darin.
6 - Commit to having a date night with my husband - once a month
7 - Focus on Photography and do at least 5 sessions.
8 - Take a class, course, anything that I find may be inspiring or will allow me to be a better person.
9 - Read. I considered taking the 52 into 52 challenge (read 52 books in 52 weeks). But, really......I don't need anything else on my "to do" list. I love to read - reading is not, nor has it ever been a chore for me. This year I will make time to read - when I am not soo tired that my eyes close on every other page.
10 - Be generous. I have generous thoughts........sometimes I find myself lacking on the follow through. In 2011, my goal was to actually do the kind deed that comes to mind. Follow through.
So, there it is.
I've accomplished all of the goals listed but most of them are ongoing...
Yes, and this is why I love blogging my thoughts down. Create the goal. Speak the goal. Apply. Succeed.... Next.
