We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

I love each and every one of my Miss Ca girls. To this day I can still call them my friends BECAZUE we try to meet for dinner when we can! I vowed to never look at this page because of the bullying or favoritism that goes on.. Because girls like myself who don't see their names as one of the girls to make top 15 can be damaging to ones self esteem. Luckily iv been blessed with supportive family, friends, miss ca sisters, and an AWESOME EXCUTIVE DIRECTOR .. That the bullies on this page are nothing but white noise in my ear... Think about how your actions will effect other. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: I, too, hope that all participants of this board will be mindful about their involvement, choice of words, and the impact of their actions. I admire the bravery and strength of the Miss California class and also the generosity and kindness of the MCO volunteers and members. I implore everyone to try to keep an open mind and to practice compassion towards everyone. Thank you for reading this and thank you everyone for making my experience with MCO a phenomenal one!

Date Posted: 16:27:04 01/28/14 Tue "We need to be clear which emotions are harmful and which are helpful; then cultivate those that are conducive to peace of mind. Often, due to a lack of knowledge, we accept anger and hatred as natural parts of our minds. This is an example of ignorance being the source of our problems. To reduce our destructive emotions we strengthen the positive ones; such emotional hygiene can contribute to a healthier society." -- The XIV Dalai Lama [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
