A week of reflection…

My Brothers Friends daughter and her best friend… I sit here and try to think of the right words and really there are none… Silence is golden here… ♥



May 22 I was another year older… No big deal as the day would begin, just another day, another year… The events of that day will forever be remembered for many as the Nation’s deadliest Tornado touches down in Joplin Mo. I went to bed that day just like any other day… I woke up at 2:45 am to find that my husband was not in bed.. A light glowed outside our bedroom door which is our loft office so I called out quietly asking him ” What are you doing” He replied, I remembered I needed to authorize a bill pay payment that he had forgot to do earlier in the day, But then he walked in the bedroom and said, A tornado has hit your brothers town of Joplin… I sat up in bed and said, What? He said it is all over the internet… Normally I am on the computer every day but that day being my birthday we were out and about and I concentrated on time with my kids and stayed off the computer and the TV was not on… so I was unaware of the happenings that day in Joplin… I immediately texted him and called him. Left messages then got up and got online. I was horrified by the devastation… A sense of helplessness was overwhelming me, but to be honest it was also a sense of guilt and fear. Fear that I could lose another immediate family member that I have never met…

You see the internet had led me to a father that I was torn away from as a very small baby.. One that I never met face to face. We talked online, spoke over the phone and always talked of the day that we would actually get together. Then without warning he died of a sudden heart attack… Time lost, and never to return. That day is still as vivid as if it was yesterday and it was actually February 5, 2006, more than 5 years ago… I have 3 half brothers, a step brother and a step sister that I have never met. All but one live in the Joplin area. I sat at the computer that night asking myself “why have I not made it back there…?” I could go on and on about work, finances, money, obligations… but really all just excuses that shouldn’t even exist…

I sit here and look at the devastation that the people of Joplin are dealing with and the loss of life that is so tragic, High school seniors whom lost their lives just leaving graduation… so much tragedy… so much pain… but feeling so blessed that my family and their friends were all spared… a miracle in itself, spared the loss but they are not spared the pain as I am sure it is so painful to be there day in and day out as people are trying to pick up the pieces and move on. I sit here and wish there was some way I could pack up the RV pay all my bills for three months and drive back there and help. My husband is a contractor and I know I could find something to do to help… but again life must go on here and there just is not enough money in the bank to just stop everything and to leave.

God has given me a second chance to take the time to meet my family face to face.. I will make it a priority to make it happen this year.. I am praying to the lord each and every day thanking him for keeping them safe. The outcome could have been so different.

Mail   Kathy Rodriguez   January 15th 303.4 lbs Feb. 05 281.4 lbs Lost 22 lbs in 21 days April 23rd 258.2 Lost 45.2 lbs Over Just 90 Days ... My Journey began on about January 15, 2011. I was approached by a young lady who in my circle of friends has been a long time network marketer and someone although I respected as a friend was the person I would turn and run from because you could pretty much count on her talking to you about some business opportunity or another... She had been trying hard this time to get me to talk to her and finally as a last resort to get her to stop bugging me I met with her for a casual lunch that I had all intentions of getting the information and running like ..... After a 2 and 1/2 hour lunch and admitting that I was a person that desperately needed a healthy change in my life, I made the choice to come aboard as a representative all though I was not convinced I would Network Market this product, but it only made sense to as the rep package got me more product then a customer could get in one package....  At 21 Days into the Visalus System After just 21 days I had already lost more than 20 lbs and earned my Black BMW car allowance and had a great start to a strong team that was growing simply because of the excitement that was generated as they saw my success with the product....  At 90 Days into my Challenge I have lost 45 lbs, brought over $6500.00 effortlessly into my household and the best part is I am down 45 lbs.  I have no doubt I will make it the other 75 lbs I need to lose and the passion I have for this product and the Vision that the Co-Founders have I feel blessed that I found the path to Visalus as I know it has forever changed my life.  My team is already at 75 reps and growing daily!  I get up each day and love what I do.  I am still a busy Real Estate Broker, but I look forward to the day that Visalus will allow me to once again work for the people I want to work for in Real Estate and not the people I have to work for in Real Estate. This product works and I am living proof.  I am looking for people to continue to share this life changing 90 Day Challenge with.  Visalus has grown in this economy more than 600%. Click Here to See the video from one of the Co-founders as he explains what three trends are fueling Visalus.
