Sometimes life is tough and in this time of economic turmoil, life can seem to reach the boiling point

Sometimes life is tough (well a lot of times)! And in this time of economic turmoil, life can seem to reach the boiling point where the temperature is so hot you are tired of being in the oven.

That's when you need a helping hand, not just a hand out. There are helpful places that can give you just such a hand.

One such website is a government website that gives you confidential information for little known grants to people who need that helping hand up.

It's: http://www.govbenefits.gov/govbenefits_en.portal

This is just one of many places that can help you, your family or a friend get the much needed economic help they may need. In addition to this website, don't forget about the Federal Energy Assistance programs available.

That website is: http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/ocs/liheap/consumer_info/index.html#at

The most important thing I want to say today, is that it's about time we stop being a "Me" society and begin getting back to basics and becoming a "We" society. One that helps our neighbors, helps our family and helps our friends with a helping hand up instead of just a helping hand out. Blessings! Jaci
