Thanking those who've helped me

If you think about it, in your life, there will be some people who you would like to thank.

This lens is all about the people that I would like to thank here on Squidoo and in my life but it is also about the different ways you can give thanks.

Reasons to Thank Others

How many can you think of?

People who have helped you when you needed it,
People who have given you support, advice or were just there as a friend,
People who have shown you unconditional love,
People who have gone out of their way for you
For just being them!

Why I have thanked them

The reasons

Janusz has created some gorgeous graphics for me for my new project, Giving Squids a Helping Hand. He's done this with no complaints and speed despite my lack of direction in how I wanted the graphics to look.

CleanerLife has been the one Lensmaster who has visited, rated and favourited some of my newest or poorest ranked lenses which have given them that much needed lift off the bottom! He's also been a true friend helping with promotion to my blogs and lenses by linking to them outside of Squidoo.

thefluffanutta has provided the Squidoo community with some awesome scripts for Firefox, Lensmaster tools and advice, being there for anyone who needs help with SEO and promotion/marketing for websites and lenses via the Squidu Forums and his blog, SquidUtils Blog.

GrowWear has shown me a lot of support over my lens, What does not destroy me, makes me stronger. She has helped me believe in myself as a person and has provided some very inspiring quotes for me to use and consider. As those closest to me know, trying to convince me that I am worth it is not the easiest thing to do!

poddys has been there from the very start, commenting on my Squidoo blog, Squid Ink with regularity and generally giving lots of support and advice.

And why I thank them, too

My reasons

aj2008 has surpassed herself with her determination and strength to keep on going despite what life throws at her. She has been very supportive and has further shown encouragement when I've created and published two of my most hardest lenses to date.

GypsyOwl is a Giant Squid with a difference. She has been a true inspiration and a great friend extending her talents to outside of Squidoo in the form of excellent graphics and communities. She has also been helping me with promotion of a couple of my lenses by linking to them outside of this site.

mulberry has also been there right from the start. She is one of the top commenters on my Squidoo blog, Squid Ink and has provided me with lots of support and advice with her upbeat comments.

JaguarJulie has been a very supportive Giant Squid Mentor. For every one comment I leave on her lenses she leaves four on mine. She has also given me some excellent tips for improving my lenses :)

a_willow Thanks to Michelle I didn't delete one of my most controversial lenses to date which proved to be a hit. She has also been a great squidoo friend offering lots of encouragement and wise words.
