PLEASE
I want to serve you. I want to continue enhancing your life by providing a webzine that's not only enlightening but also entertaining. A publication that you know will never -- EVER -- be accused of disseminating "fake news". One that's as inspiring as it is inspiring; that is fierce yet manages to be refined. PLEASE LET ME. I'm not sure why only under 1 percent of JWR's readers have responded to our fundraising efforts. Think about that for a second (or more). 99 percent of readers gaining from JWR won't send in even a few dollars to help the site continue. It's the eve of the holiday season, I get that. Folks are harried, I understand that, too. It's an amazing feeling for me to, as my mail chronicles, touch and improve so many lives the world over. It's also a privilege. PLEASE enable me to continue. I can't do it without you. And to those who have so far, THANK YOU!.
An illuminating Chanukah and a blessed Christmas. Or A blessed Christmas and an illuminating Chanukah. Your choice.
