About love

    Tribute to love

I am not 20 years old

I am not 40 years old

But my age is that of love

For love does not see the number of my years

And does not see the passing of time on my life

Love does not see my skin sags

Or my hair which is rare

Love does not see my hands shaking

Or my feet that stumble on the road

For love does not see the number of my years

And does not see the passing of time on my life

Love sees only my inner beauty.

*******

 

Hommage à l’amour

 

Je n’ai pas 20 ans

Je n’ai pas 40 ans

Mais mon âge est celui de l'amour

 

Car l'amour ne voit pas le nombre de mes années

Et ne voit pas le temps qui passe sur ma vie

 

L'amour ne voit pas ma peau qui s'affaisse

Ou mes cheveux qui sont rares

L'amour ne voit pas mes mains qui tremblent

Ou mes pas qui trébuchent sur ​​la route

 

Car l'amour ne voit pas le nombre de mes années

Et ne voit pas le temps qui passe sur ma vie

 

L'amour ne voit que ma beauté intérieure.

When I retired, I thought my pension plus Social Security would let me live comfortable.  How wrong I was.  I am really looking for a LEGIT part time (20-30Hrs per week) opportunity to work out of my home.  I have over 30 years clerical experience, and 10 years as a supervisor of the clerical staff.  If I stay in my little box, then clerical work would be my preference.  However, after trying to find a clerical position for a couple of years, I thought I had better broaden my search.  If anyone out there has any ideas, job vacancies, or know of anything ligit, please let me know.

Thank you

When I retired, I never thought I would be looking for part-time employment.  Well guess what, I am now.  I have over 30 years clerical experience, with 10 years supervisory experience.  If I stayed in my little box, I would limit myself to clerical employment, however, a few years of looking, I discovered that I must get out of my box.
I am looking for a part-time job opportunity from my home.  (20-30hrs per week).  If anyone has any ideas, knows anyone that has a job opening for home employment, please let me know.
I am open to any legit, honest opportunity.  I would hope I could get a job without paying, if possible.

Once again, Thank you

I retired a year ago. I had one part time job but it ends up being seasonal,  so limited hours.
I only wanted a job to keep myself usy and have a little bit of that routine of getting up with a purpose, not to mention a little pocket money.

I have an ad posted on another website explaining all my expertise (withOUT persoanl information) more in miniature bullet form of a resume. Retired with years of mechanical, electro mechanical, tons of night school courses, I received  a couple  replies but nothing serious..

There used to be a time when our senior experience was worth something. I find now, that employers don't care about quality and getting the job done right. I find they're more interested in getting that person at minimum wage and train them their way.

One of my offereings is work ethics and that "Pride of Ownership" attitude. That doesn't seem to mean anything any more.

In Response to Re: Are you looking for a part-time job?:
I would be interested in starting a home business using the internet 9Blogging, etc.) but don't know how to. Maybe there is someone out there who can help me (teach me) to get started... or even form a small group and work together. Any ideas?  Yes...I am going to start one re: the lack of common sense and decency toward each other.  I Googled: how to start a blog, and also because I am not as savvy on Social networks, I googled How to use facebook.  It was that simple.  I would think your local Sr. Ctr. would be a good place to find others like yourself who are interested in the same thing.  Good Luck to you...It should be fun! bizpro26

The only thing that trips my trigger anymore, is gardening.  I have decided to get a Pea Patch and grow veggies for the Food Banks.  I was in the Mortgage Biz for 30+ years.  The last thing I want to do, is work with people on a business level again.  TOO MANY WHINERS OUT THERE! I also owned & operated a Landscape Renovation biz, and did it all on referral business.  It last 5 years before I hurt my back, but looking forward to getting to the Doctor at long last to deal with this painful issue, so I can ROCK AND ROLL AGAIN!  NO FEAR!

I have not posted here for some time, but I did start writing on a site called Hubpages.com. It costs nothing, but is kind of addicting. I have publihed about 27 articles, poems, short fiction, and even a photo essay. You get feedback from other people and it is very easy to use.  I write there under the name xstatic, so feel free to read and comment if you like.
It is possible to make some money on the site if you get a Google adsense account. I have no tbeen  able to do that yet, though it is supposed to be easy.
Many people write "How To" articles on there, and do make some money. I have made many online friends there in the past year and about 350 people are "following" me. There are many categories in which to write. I stay clear of politics and religion.
Literally thousands of people from all ove the world write on HP. I enjoy it a lot. Even met one man who writes on there for breakfast since he lives in Bend, Oregon and I live in Eugene.
Oh, by the way, look up Hawaiianodysseyus on hubpages if you want to learn about selling on Ebay. He has several hubs about it and lives in SW Washington.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Does anyone out there have any idea where I can locate a legit home based job.  I have over 30 years clerical experience, and 10 years supervisory experience. 
I had been looking for strictly a clerical opportunity, howerer, I haven't been able to locate any ligit offers.  I am now open for almost anything to make a few extra dollars.

If anyone has any ideas, suggestions, or help, I would appreciate any and all help you could provide.


Thanking you in advance.

I would like part time work helping out at a school. I worked for a great credit union for 28 years, part time office work, either in an office, school, doctors office or working from home.
