Jokes/Poetry or anythin alike!

This thread is for jokes, poems or any inspirational stories (hint hint muslim kuri!)... so here goes......

Generous lawyer

A local United Way office realized that the organization had never received a donation from the town's most successful lawyer. The person in charge of contributions called him to persuade him to contribute.

"Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least $500,000, you give not a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?"

The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?"

Embarrassed, the United Way rep mumbled, "Um ... no."

The lawyer interrupts, "or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?"

The stricken United Way rep began to stammer out an apology, but was interrupted again.

"or that my sister's husband died in a traffic accident," the lawyer's voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?!"

The humiliated United Way rep, completely beaten, said simply, "I had no idea..."

On a roll, the lawyer cut him off once again, "So if I don't give any money to them, why should I give any to you?"

We do the research first semester and the writing second semester - they want the bibliography with the proposal so they can scrutinize at our proposal defense.

My heart is bleeding, bleeding with fear,
So afraid of losing, losing what is near.
Deep in my heart, I feel we're drifting apart.
I need you more than ever, and that's a forever.

I don't know what to do or say...
Just know you mean the world to me,
You are my hopes... my dreams...
And everything in between.
I want you, I need you, I love you.

I don't want to imagine life without you.
Am I asking to much, am I living in a dream?
Sometimes I get lost in my own selfish thoughts,
I know who and what I want...
It's you my Love, you are my heart.
