Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to,
doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
Jim and Mary were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end.
He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Mary promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Mary's heroic act, she
immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now
considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Mary the news she said, "Mary, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound judgment, that you have a sound mind.
The bad news is that Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead."
Mary replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?"  |

  Dang! Now that's too sad to even laugh at. |
