Hmm.. I highly doubt that this small box will have the room to define who I am as a person.. but I will try.

I am a fair-skinned redhead who has the strongest faith in God. If things don’t go well, despite my best efforts, then I accept them as how things should be. I have overcome many obstacles in my life in the past. I may be a petite girl, but I consider myself very courageous. I do not scare easily unless it involves the safety of my little sister. I have a strong personality but am kind to all people.

I don’t judge a book by its cover.

I enjoy dancing, writing poetry, sketching, painting (doing art in general). I’m ambitious; I like to dream big, I’m a health-nut. I love to cook all my foods. I have a huge heart for animals <3  Even despite my financial situation, I have kept a hyper kitten because he was abandoned about two weeks into his birth and left to fend for his little self (he was actually stuck inside of a stray tire in our backyard. Maybe his mommy didn’t know how to get him out?)

I have attended many runs for the Susan G. Komen run for the cure. I’ve done the same for Candlelighters (for Children’s cancer), and am anticipating a run for MS sometime in March.

I love to write and hope to publish a promising story one day. It will become a really popular story. I can feel it. Probably helps that I know how to draw because I’ve already designed some of the characters.

I am a fan of Sushi, Asian Culture, lover of Middle Eastern Cuisine, enjoy video games, a great player in Chess, and a counselor to those in need. My weakness include wanting to help others, even when I’m at the short end of the stick. I enjoy helping others, so one day I hope to be able to help everyone who is in need.

Even if I don’t believe in miracles for myself, I like to believe that miracles happen to other people <3

I go by a few actual nicknames- Lucy for my red head (compliments to Lucille Ball)

Rain (harder to explain without giving away my real name)

And Ria (as an abbreviation for my full name)

Good luck with everything!! ^-^

Still trying to figure out how to navigate here... =)  how to change keywords on top?

I'm an artist, graphic artist and have been working on my art for years. I'm just starting out on my own and I'm still not sure where I'm going or what I'm doing.

I'm an animal person, yet not the live in the country on a farm type either. I like technology, I'm a geek in that way. I like talking to people, playing games and chatting online with my friends.

I really like the asian culture and love the food! I think that their traditional culture is very respectful. I think that too many people are very disrespectful, crude and negative in the world today.

I have been trying to find a way to earn more money to save up. I really want to be able to have some funds saved up for later. Either for schooling, upgrades or maybe visiting family - some which are overseas.

That's all I can think of and I hope that I can be helpful here as well as find some help in navigating things.

Hey Guys!

PositiveMommy here....great to meet you! I was reading a story online and came upon the link to AidPage. I'm really grateful to be here, offering what I know to help others.

Having read some of the other posts, it is really impressive to see how people have come together to help each other! I would love to highlight some of you on my own website, so if I respond to your offerings and you're willing to be showcased, just let me know!

Have a blessed day (or afternoon/night)!

I wish to become famous. I play guitar. I am good looking with a shaved head and I am a young adult. I have a wonderful positive personality and have no job but go to college pursuing video game design. I owe money to collections at 19 years old. I have moved eleven times since I was born. My parents got divorced, which took 6 years. My mom lied to me about my dad and told me horrible stories about him so that I would stop seeing him. She kicked my little brother and me out of her house and told us we had to move in with him even though I hadn't spoken to him in 2 years.I re-established a relationship with my father. Then my mom let us move back in with her. My dad and mother had to spend all our riches on lawyer fees until they were broke. They still blame each other while I, still to this day, am put in the middle of things. Anyway my mom moved us around Tacoma in 5 different houses. Finally we settled in a nice clean neighborhood with old style houses. I adjusted to living in a middle-class neighborhood; however, just as I thought we were finally settled after living in our house for two years, my mom decided to move to ghetto apartments because her psychotic baby murdering boyfriend cannot afford the rent. My mom met her boyfriend in Seattle, and he moved in one night. He kept sacrificial journals and documents underneath her bed including his 3 fake ID's and much other disturbing items. He was banned from stepping foot in an airport. My mom kicked him out around 12 times in the past 3 years. We moved 3 times throughout this situation. The house we are living in together now will no longer be ours. The rent raised because they tore the carpets out and painted the floors white so the Landlord raised the cost of rent and here I stand with my brother. We are the only two who are sane around here. We are sane and we includes my 2 brothers and 1 sister. My parents divorce ended nasty. My dad broke his neck, my moms lawyer died, and now my mom's mom broke her neck after lying in court saying that my dad's broken neck was not broken. I cannot afford the cost of putting my teenage childhood video tapes onto a DVD to transfer them onto youtube.com. They are amazing hilarious videos which document the silly lives of my entire family. The parental separation was not only rough, but was also well known by many living in Washington. The fact of the matter is the people here do not know the entire truth behind the stories. I am living it rough as well. All I can do is remain under pressure and stress, and decide to make excellent choices, live a healthy lifestyle, and happily move forward. I live off of pure luck, or God has decided to grant me good fortune for when I say a meaningful prayer, he answers them. All I have left in my life is a 4runner, a guitar, a television, a playstation, a bed, and faith that the Lord will answer my questions soon enough. I look forward to graduation in 2013 at International Academy of Design and Technology. I am pursuing video game design. I love playing guitar, and have played for 11 years. I began writing my own symphonies on guitar when I turned 14 years old. I have never lost interest ever since. I still feel disgusted realizing that I have gotten nowhere in life so far. I also must remember, things will always get better no matter what the circumstances. It is how our world functions. I wish to become famous.
Thank you and sorry for handing you a burden those of you who read this. Have an excellent week!
If anybody is interested, I have recorded a few wonderful songs onto my album and I will email them to you as long as you spread the word. I spend tons of time on my music and continue to write fantastic songs on guitar! Thank you again!

Well i guess I am just here to say, That one day you are living it up the next, you are throwing up bllod with out warning. Do ask me anythinh today about how life works i can not explain, what makes the body work. The brain I know buy the body is strange to me.

  Hope you all live long and God seee's fix to keep you safe.

I just graduated from Art school and need to pay off some loans.  I'm trying to start a Portrait business and using my portraits in funding for paying off some loans and to be funding further schooling so i don't have to take out as much loans.  I would appreciate anyone to contact me if they are interested in having there favorite photos or pictures into portrait drawings. i will provide samples of my work and prices.

I'm not sure where to begin. I am 38yrs old,single mom of two boys. About ten yrs ago,my whole life was dumped over and I've been trying to scratch the pieces ever since.

I stumbled across this site for, I suppose, reasons why others find this site; I am desperately looking for answers, advice and help. Like many most of my troubles stem from my lack of money - I have no debts and very low monthly expenses. Basically, if I could find some way to generate just $150 - $200 a week I'd be okay. Still, even that much seems to be beyond me. Somehow I need to find a way to make life feel like it used to - As if there is a future and possibilities for me too. I feel trapped in a shrinking box.

I'm an artist and most everyone tends to like my work - But making them leap from liking to buying is something I haven't mastered. In this economy getting any job is difficult and living in Michigan doesn't help. Sweeping floors would be fine if I could keep a roof over my head and food on the table. (Forget needing dental help, help with transportation etc.)

I don't think I can ask any specific questions right now. Maybe I'm just too embarassed to admit that I even need help? I've never asked for help before. Perhaps the best thing for me right now is to simply read? Who knows? Maybe I can even help someone else? That's a nice thought.

I'm here to give and recieve support.

I'm an artist who is looking for grants geared toward non-profit organizations. My occupation is bringing the arts to inner city youth through seasonal programs that encourages an indepth pursuit of the arts. 

I am writing in hopes someone really does see this and says, "why not?" 

I am an unemployed not "unemployable" father of soon to be 2 and husband for 10 strong years. We have always put ourselves third and I have amongst losing 3 teeth, have several other conditions I am working with, even though most of family does not know.

I am a creative photographer/artist that recently latched onto helping small businesses work with social media to help their businesses stay relevant in the days of corporate coffee shops and big box garden and hardware stores.  But my love has always been art and namely photography. If you take a look at some of my work, please let me know if you would like to buy. I do not need a handout, I just need to "start" my photography career so I can help provide for family again. I do not collect unemployment, so that is not even in my vocabulary. 

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Chris Barrett

Hello, I am a talented artist and photographer with amyloidosis and have been searching for over 4 years for employment.  My husband is also disabled and a woodworker and blacksmith.  8 years ago if you had told either one of us that we would be in such a desperate situation, I would not have believed you.   My husband was injured on the job a few years ago and then sent back to work after his 8 weeks on work comp and therapy.  He did not feel he was ready to go back to work, but work comp said he was back to 100%, so they sent him back.  He then went camping with his Boy Scout Troop and his back started to bother him again.  He came home on Sunday night unable to walk.  His company said that the camping trip injured his back, so no comp, no disability, nothing.

He did finally get SSI last year.  My disease has been progressing and I am without health insurance.  I also know that there is not a cure for amyloidosis, so I am trying to do all that I can for as long as I can.  In a nutshell amyloidosis is a protein in your system that deposits in your joints causing server arthritis and physically displays as large red bumps on your face and neck.  I was never a beautiful woman and this has made it worse.

Unfortunately I cannot even get a job at McDonalds or even Wal-mart because I am unable to stand for long lengths of time and the disease has affected my appearance greatly.

To make things worse, my digital camera died, so I cannot even pick up any money freelancing.  I do have a small business that I have been running at art shows, but the price of gas has made it impossible to go to the shows, and the ones that we have done the sales are not even enough to make up for vendor fee.

What I really would love is to sell my jewelry, like $10,000 or so, I really, really enjoy sculpting and photography and want to be successful at it.
