My Sincere Apologies!
I would like to extend my earnest apologies to all my WA friends, especially my personal Network and faithful followers, for not having been actively present in our unique Community and unable to comment on fellow members’ wonderful blog, question, and discussion postings.
As stated in my last blog, I had to take a sudden leave, from my regular interaction in our WA community, because of an extremely urgent personal emergency, to which I had to devote my time and attention, not to mention every ounce of my energy. I am hoping and praying that this terrible weight and the unimaginable pain in my heart will be soon lifted – one way or another!
I recently had a chat with a dear friend of mine, who was undergoing similar painful challenges, on the importance of being proactively realistic in the acceptance of the WORST and the BEST outcome of any unforeseen situation or tragedy in our lives. I truly believe that if I can be ready for these two extremes, regardless of how much joy or pain they may bring us, we can then handle any outcome falling in between! I, too, am now ready to embrace, and live with, whatever the outcome of this untimely and unfortunate tragedy that has seen it fit to be hurled my way! Fortunately, I am very strong and not alone - a lot of support is being sent my way from directions that really count!
My return to my regular WA community activities will be uncertain, till such time the circumstances of my subject situation come to a definite outcome. I will, however, try to drop in the community, from time to time and for a short time, to welcome my new followers, reply to my Profile comments, and PM’s as often as I possibly can. Please forgive me for any delays and be patient with me. I do care about you!
It is imperative that I clearly and unequivocally convey my deep regrets for the inability of being there for those few individuals who may humble me by allowing me to help and assist them in some small measure. In my world, there is nothing worse than refraining from giving a helping hand to another when one can indeed help out – It is unconscionable… No matter how one might turn, twist, and mask it for purposes of avoidance!
I am certain the each and every one of us initially came to WA for the singular reason of either starting an online business, or to enhance an already ongoing online business… for reasons of financial gain – Even though some of us may not be willing to admit it! However, upon joining WA, and its community, and learning about the many other opportunities it avails us, we must have suddenly discovered that it’s not merely all about chasing the dollar, or any other form of currency!
Personally, I discovered that the WA community is also giving me a platform to put my personal character and traits to the test, such as: My desire and ability to give of myself to help out others; My humility to accept and admit that I could learn from others’ knowledge and experiences; My sense of responsibility of doing the right thing in a timely manner; My acknowledgement of and giving the benefit of the doubt, and the due respect, to others in their differing points of view; And, I could go on and on listing more indefinitely!
Therefore, put it simply, as in the Beatles song ‘Live and Let Live’… It’s not that hard to do, and it won’t destroy you! Or, repeating one of my favorite quotes (which only recently a friend informed me who had said it) by Eugene Bell Jr. “Aspire to Inspire before You Expire.” Basically, bringing to our attention that unless we as humans impact other human beings’ lives, in whatever small capacity that it might be, we WILL be completely forgotten upon our eventual and certain demise! So, what are YOU waiting for? Be brave and impact someone’s life! Yes! You can!
I did not intend to be so long, but I could not help myself in holding my excitement back! It feels refreshing to be here again… with YOU… that I lost track of everything! I hope you’ll forgive me!
In closing, I would like to wish all of you, including your great family and loved ones, good health and needed protection from whomever or whatever you may believe in… It can get awfully cold and lonely out there in the world by oneself! I happen to know firsthand!
With my warmest regards,
Jay Barnelli

No need to apologize, everyone has issues and problems of their own to deal with. They all understand the need to deal with personal things and not be here all the time. Praying your problems resolve soon. Shirley
I have not been here very long but I would like to join myself to the other members and wish you the very best in taking care of what is most important in your life at the moment. Take care.

Your a wonderful person and as hard as this personal experience has been for you and what you may still have to tend to we are here for full support.
You focus on taking care of things and if you would like to send your new members my way I will point them in the right direction or help them out if they have questions. If its not my forte then I will send them to someone that does know.
Thank you for checking in and take good care of yourself.

Life happens, Jay. You don't have anything to apologize for. Come back when you can. We'll leave the light on for you.
I, and I'm sure most of the folks here, understand that personal issues take precedence over all other commitments. No apology necessary. I wish you all the best.
My dear Jay,
I, for one, am so happy to see your post here. Despite the challenges you're going through, you still think about your friends and peers. For that, I am grateful, humbled and blessed to have you in my circle of love.
I have a really dear friend helping me and supporting me in my personal dealings with my emotions. His guidance and friendship are the light of my being. I want him to know that no matter what, he's already a part of my life and I'll never wish to have otherwise. I think the same of you.
Take care, Jay. Always thinking and praying for you and yours.
Always,
Jenn
Whatever your difficulties you are encountering now, if that's what you need so be it. I wish you better times ahead. While we miss your expertise here, there are others her to help out too. It's not all up to you. Good luck Jay, and here is hoping for the best.
