Female Mavens Unite

I hereby commit to creating a new community via my upcoming Web site:
Female MavensandMoguls.com

I've recently discovered that new title for myself - I feel, and that's important, that I have sufficient wisdom, experience and expertise to qualify; I know there are hundreds of others in the same position. We are over 50, probably parents and grandparents and have spent mega time volunteering for events, services, people, places that we hold dear and which are necessary to maintain our humanity. I must add that it's not necessary to be a parent.Some of us have had huge careers and been well paid, others of us have worked for free because we have been called to, others have done both.

Our world now needs us more than ever, to step up, to shout out, rationally, what we have learned...the lessons we've had to encounter and handle...there's much positive energy here which, I believe, needs to be harnessed and used to bring new adulthood and wisdom to the world --- to mentor, to use another word --- people and places that are in need of support, cheerleading and a smile.

Smiles connect people. They make the one being smiled at feel that someone sees them, connects with them, and sends them good vibes. Smiles don't have to cost anything, we never run out of them if we want, and they're a way of greeting another whose language we don't speak. A smile is an instant form of communication. Morever, when we give people the kind of attention they need, they instantly smile back. I wonder if you've ever noticed that?

I am going to see how many smiles I can give out today. I hope I give too many to count.

More to come.....
