Hello my name is Lewis
Hello, my name is Lewis. And I am a person who matters.
I may not matter to you, but I matter to me!
Remember this - "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind" Dr Seuss
Why do I matter?
Points for guessing ;-)
I'm not changing.
Dani likes me. My friends like me. My family likes me. My customers like me.
Because I'm the real article.
What you see is what you get.
So what matters to me?
Hopefully by the time you get to the bottom of this lens you will have a much better idea. Thank you for reading.
People
What is a People Person? Someone who likes people? I don't know. I do know that I am both a person, and I like people. So maybe *I* am a People Person!I like talking to people, not going out to clubs dancing whilst my ears bleed from the techno blasting out of the speakers. I like actually sitting down somewhere and talking to people.
I like emailing people, and getting emails from people. I like that personal contact can exist on the internet even though it's all letters on a screen. I like that people gather places and talk as a group. Like at squidu.com for example. I like that it is another way for people to interact and get along. It is just a shame that some people sometimes seem incapable of this. I like receiving letters in the post from real people. Not companies. A nice handwritten envelope. I like how facebook.com and myspace.com have linked me back up with all the people from my high school. I like how people teach each other. Like a person devoting their life to teaching children. Children who are not their own. I like how people trust the education of their children to other people. People who they have not met before, but have confidence in them. I like how people trust other people, believing that the default is that people are inherently good. I like how people can come across a story online of a man trying to build a better life, and be so inspired by that story that they choose to send him some money to make it easier. I like that people get inspired enough to do this. I like how people come online to find information, and end up making friends.
I like people. I like the funny things people do. And I like the ways people connect with other people. With a smile, a handshake, a comment, a joke, or a "Have a nice day", a text message, an email, a letter, a video, a phone call.
I find it funny how there are people who say that the internet is isolating people in their own homes.
I like that the people saying this have obviously never logged on to the internet before.
I like Dani
In fact, I don't like her. That's a lie.I love her!
Even if she still smells of elephant poo (from all that mucking out).

Dani is my Hero

Dani is my hero. She's also my best friend. And my dream girl :-)
I like the Utility Warehouse
I help people save money on utility bills (by getting all their utilities on one bill - for less), and each month when they generate a bill... I get paid a percentage.And we all win :)
It is in the UK only, and you can find out more here:

complexity invite to process outsourcing. Today's fast pace world, two crucial things that we run short off are "time" and "money". In the modern times, outsourcing is a unique method of streamlining various functions in an organization. In order to...
I like ClickBank
I like ClickBank because it means I can set up websites or Squidoo lenses and feature those links, and I get paid. And if I set up my Squidoo lenses correctly, I don't need to do any promotion myself.
This means that every month I get paid almost a thousand dollars altogether from affiliate sales, and I haven't had to do a thing to earn it!
Job done. I like ClickBank.

I like reading
A library card is FREE, and yet so few people have them. This shocks me.
This confuses me: A young guy breaks into a rich person's house. Does he head for the library room and steal the rich man's books? The books which fed his mind and likely made him rich in the first place?
No. He steals the TV.
Wow. How much of an idiot do you have you got to be to steal a TV?
The IdiotBox. Forget it. Read instead.
I like helping people
I would really like to be a teacher. But maybe not in a school. One thing I like about Squidoo is that it enables anyone to be a teacher. To pass on what you know for the benefit of other people who want to know it. Like a download from my brain to yours. So my collection of lenses here on Squidoo is my attempt at making a catalogue of everything I know which is worth knowing. And don't you worry! I'm always writing more. I'm not over yet!
I like being a Citizen Squid
A Citizen Squid is a Citizen Squid BECAUSE we know what we're doing with Squidoo. We can use it. We can play with it. We can get our desired results with it.
The Citizen Squid team has a lot of lenses in the top 100, yeah. But not because of any priviledge. We're just dedicated to Squidoo for one reason or another.
I like being a Citizen Squid.
I like thinking
The average thoughts taken from 10 seconds of my day
That tree over there... how long has it been there? Did someone 100 years ago look at that tree and ask the very same question? Did it nearly blow down in a storm 100 years ago? Did children 100 years ago climb that tree? Maybe someone fell out of that tree. Maybe someone crashed their car into it. Maybe a cat got stuck up it once, and the same thing happened last week.
Those traffic lights turning red... I wonder how many times that goes red in a day. Maybe once it got stuck on red and people waited for hours for it to turn green! Hmmm... I wonder who came up with the idea for a traffic light? Did they make any money from it? Did they go round and introduce themselves as "John, the man who invented the traffic light". Hmmm... I wonder how many cars there are right now in the world. Maybe millions. Enough to drive a 6 lane-wide stream of cars to the moon, I seem to remember reading somewhere. Wow. That's loads. I wonder how far away the moon is. I wonder how far away the SUN is. I wonder how people can KNOW these things. That's amazing. I wonder what would happen if something large enough blocked the earth from the sun's rays just for a day. What would happen to earth? Would our atmosphere be fragile enough to crumble after one day of no sunlight? What would happen to that ant on my window?
