Help, Please...Thanks.

Recently I needed a distraction, so I took
@Alamar9's avatar on Twitter, and played
with it in Photoshop. This is what I came
up with


I am no expert in Photoshop, but I do seem
to come up with many things that people
like (including my Twitter background).

It's fun, and it is a creative outlet, which
I enjoy, and I got to thinking that maybe
there were others on Twitter, or even in the
"real" world (how does the real world exist
without Twitter?) that might have a need for
a revamped original image, or perhaps something
that I can create for them.

You may have seen my previous blog entry about
how things are for me at the moment, and to
say "not good" is an understatement. People
seem to appreciate what I do, as long as it's
free. I am more than happy to give of myself,
the only problem is I need to pay bills, and
things are fairly desperate at the moment.

So...My request to you if you are reading this
is to remember me if you need - anything. I don't
know if I can help, or not, but I will give it
my best shot. I may not be able to help
personally, but I can reach out to others. In
addition, maybe I can help you in a way that I
can get paid for my services, maybe in a way you
didn't even know I was capable.

There are many things I am able to do, and it
is difficult to make a comprehensive listing of
them in a way that marketers tell me won't be
confusing for you.

I am open to partnering with people, creating
affiliate type relationships, to helping creating
basic web pages, to hosting those pages, to helping
someone with a project from an administrative point
of view, to...(the list could go on).

You can learn more about me and (about some of) what
I do at JoLoPe.net and HolidayStressBuster.com.
There is a lot there, and if you prefer, just
pick up the phone and call. I find it the most
expedient and effective way to get things done.

I know I can't be the only one in this position -
someone with something to give, and having
difficulty finding a way to give it and survive
these tough times. Let's do what we can for each
other - Please. Thank you.

PS If you'd like to help me with my basic needs
and are willing to donate any funds, you can send
money on PayPal to ThankYou@JoLoPe.com.
It sucks to ask because I would so much rather
do something to help another for any money received.
If you really want to help, the best thing you could
do is help another by helping them to find me. I
promise you, I will take very good care of them, and
should they want hypnosis, they will get one of the
best hypnotists out there. Thanks so much!

PPS This is about helping each other, so even if you
don't think you can help me, and you need help, please
speak up! However, don't underestimate the value of
a recommendation, or a small purchase. For example,
I have a recording for less than $10.

Have you ever really wanted something?

Have you ever really wanted something?
Would you have liked it if people had
helped you get it?

So...Here's the thing...

I have been watching what has been going
on with Collective Soul, and have come
to appreciate their music, and I want to
do something to help them with their goal.

They just released a new song,
and want to be number one.
Who doesn't?
I am sure you can relate.
What if there was a
relatively easy way to help?

Wouldn't it be great if we could all
do something relatively small for another
that could make a big difference?

Don't ask me why I am doing it for them,
or why now...cause I haven't a clue. It's
kinda like meeting @nominated. I can't
help myself. You know how you get a good
feeling about someone, but don't know why?

Well this is one of those times. Probably
reading what their fans have to say has
something to do with it. They really do
seem to be good guys who are just looking
to make a living do what they obviously
love and are passionate about.

So here is what you can do:
Go to ITunes and get their
new song Staring Down.
You can hear a sample, and
it's only 69 cents!

You have the power to help them make
it a reality by buying it yourself, and/
or telling others about it.

Wouldn't it be nice if someone would
launch a campaign to help you get what
you want...especially if it is something
as simple and as specific as this is, and
with minimal individual investment?! On
top of which, you get to hear a great
song - win/win, in my opinion.

And just because I am the type of person
that likes to help, get to know me, and
tell me more about yourself. If there is
something you are looking to get some help
and support with, let me know, and I'll
see what I can to help you, too.

I also invite you to consider how you can
help make a difference in another's world.
If more people took a simple action, we
might all be better off. Sometimes all it
takes is a question: Will you help?

These days, especially,
we have a greater opportunity
to help each other out.

There can be great enjoyment that comes from
seeing a good person succeed, especially
when they have something of value to offer
the world in who they are, with what they do.

If in the end, you decline this request
to help, please use this blog as a prompt
to consider what simple, and perhaps
seemingly small thing, you can do to
make a difference for another.

Thanks for stopping by!
Be well and be safe.
