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. Ralph and Edna were both
patients in a
mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital
swimming
pool, Ralph suddenly
jumped into the deep end.
He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.
Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled
him out.
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna'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 Edna the news she said, 'Edna, 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 the
person
you love... I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.
The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe
belt right
after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead.'
Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry..
How soon can I go home?'
Happy Mental Health Day!
You can do your bit by remembering to send an email to an unstable
friend...
