Help!

042.365

day one BWHelp, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help.

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody’s help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I’m not so self assured,
Now I find I’ve changed my mind and opened up the doors.

Help me if you can, I’m feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Oh Won’t you please, please help me.

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I’ve never done before.

Help me if you can, I’m feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won’t you please, please help me.

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody’s help in any way.
But now these daya are gone, I’m not so self assured,

And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won’t you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh.

“project 365” has now been enmeshed and morphed into another project to be celebrated with my bestest mate whom I call jojo. although this is day forty-two since I began a docuphotage of my 50th year on this planet, i realized much of my life right now, is centered around “me, myself/I”  something I totally do not want…it is why I chose to do this project, to capture moments outside of myself in this precious human life.  today I continue this journey with my mates project “Comeback 2010”. I will still document “this precious human life” but it will include photos of his progress and commitment!

it began over date night dinner before seeing the great Lily Tomlin perform (at 70 this woman kicks amazing ass!) and realizing that i spend a whole lot of time doing creative things w/o my partner! it came to me….why not do THIS project together!?  jojo has been trying to get fit for quite awhile…over the last 3-4 years he has been hit with a series of difficulties in and of this life…and I do mean series.  i will not post what it entails because every being has gone through major difficulties in life, it is relative, however, i know how difficult the series was/is because I am his mate…his life partner, good and bad, happy and sad, it is ALL a part of this precious human life.

to help him in his endeavors i thought it would hold him more accountable to post to the world (via flickr) his commitment to “Comeback 2010”!  with love and good karma coming your way…..
