Here's Janet's Bio:

My Dear Adland Family & Friends,

Firstly, I would like to thank John and Pauline for presenting this wonderful POTW forum to all of us.  A place to get to know people and appreciate them as the person they are and for their involvement in the community, a place to welcome everybody whether very new or longer existing members to Adland, a place to make new friends, a place to cherish friends & a place to appreciate them.  The POTW forum is one of my favorite forums because it brings me nearer to people I sometimes barely know and gives me the chance to really get to know and appreciate them. 

Winning the POTW is an amazing feeling.  It has left me in kind of a shock, totally emotional & unreal for me.  I’m so full of appreciation for my friends that voted for me and I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I feel very honored to have been a candidate together with  such great people and friends like Michael Derowin, James Wright, Sam Hall, Melissa Fulwider, Luis Miguel Goitizolo Silva and Beth Schmillen – you’re all winners and I appreciate you very much.

I was born in Glauchau, a small town in Saxony, East Germany.  I was the first of 3 children. Being the eldest and the only girl didn’t make me a princess.  My parents had to work their whole life, my mother could not spend much time at home with us children so that made me responsible for my brothers after school, pick them from kindergarten & take care of them until my mother came home from work.  As for my school time I grew up learning everything about communism and socialism.

After school, I went to a Nursing school near my town and after 3 years I had my qualification as a Nurse in 1989.  1989 was also the time when many East Germans fled to West Germany.  Since I felt the same urge, I applied for a visa for Hungary & took a train to Budapest at the end of September 1989.  There I met some people my age and together we hitch hiked to Vienna and from there to West Germany.  I was in a camp for 3 days, took a train to Bavaria, near Munich and stayed for 2 weeks with my parents friends whom I met years back in Hungary.  I found a job and an apartment and 2 months later my family came to stay with me.  After 6 years of living a happy life, tragedy struck my family.  My youngest brother had a bike accident on his 17th birthday was in a coma for 2 weeks & after that he couldn’t walk nor speak.  It was an up & down for half a year, operations & rehabilitation.  After 6 months, doctors found a brain tumor-another shock for our family after having high hopes for his health.  Operations, chemotherapy – nothing worked. He had to go to God 3 month after his 18th Birthday.
Only 1 month after that I left to Malaysia to stay with friends.

I worked different jobs here because I couldn’t get a working permit as a nurse.  In 1999 I met my husband, my best friend and soul mate Ralph, a businessman. We married in 2002 and 2003 we had our first daughter Anya Ashwina, now 4 years old.  In 2005, we were blessed with another girl, Leah Anisha, now 2.  We have 2 doggies, about 20 big Koi and 100’s of smaller fishes in a garden pond.  We live in a beautiful house about 10 minutes from Kuala Lumpur’s City Centre. I feel I’m living exactly the life I’ve always dreamed of; that includes the climate, having a wonderful husband and of course being a mother.

As for my online businesses – I got involved in Network marketing about 1 ½ years back.  I had my ups and down’s and have 2 programs working very well for me now.

Adland has become much more than a community to me.  I came here in the first place to connect with other networkers and advertise my business.  At the same time and now very important to me, I found another family here, a family of wonderful friends.  I look forward to every day I can be online and share laughter, stories, games and everything else under the sun with them.  I would like to thank a few friends such as:

Rina Rishilah Rani

- She’s my best friend and sister and always there for me when I need somebody to talk to and she’s a great partner to work any business with because she’s dedicated to what she’s doing.

Joe Downing, Monica Stokes.BJ Burgess

- All 3 of them give me so much happiness and laughter each day, encourage me to go on with my plans and are simply wonderful friends to have – I appreciate you so much!

Georgios Paraskevopoulos

- Georgios is a gentleman! He appreciates what people do or achieve. He shows great respect to everybody and I’m very proud to be his friend!

For those of you that I did not mention here, you are always on my thoughts and because I could only list a few, be assured you all are special to me.  I would like to say thank you again to each of you who voted for me & each of you who voted for the other amazing candidates.  I appreciate you all so much and it’s a pleasure being your friend!  If I’m not your friend yet, please send me an invitation.  Once again John & Pauline, my heartiest thank you for what you have done for the POTW & the community.  I appreciate it very much.

Thank you for your time to let me share a bit about myself with you all.  Please don’t forget to vote for the next POTW, and the next and the next ;)

Have a wonderful day, Blessings to everybody!

Janet Ravindran
