Array ( [sid] => 144476 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => give than recieve [time] => 2008-08-10 00:38:19 [hometext] => [bodytext] => We share things in life with others,
love,,gifts,,even life,,
We don't ask for anything in return,,
for thats not us,
thats not who we want to be,
thats not what life is,,

We give in the name love ,
We give because we care,
if something is returned,
we feel a little sad,
for we gave, without reason,
but they give for reasons,

I write sometimes it helps,
either for myself, or someone,
i ask nothing in return,
no thank you's, no promises,
just be a friend,

My brother had kidney problems,
i gave with question,
and i would do it again,
for that day he found out ,
that he was going to be a daddy again,,
a beautiful gift for him,
a new life with his child,,

I love my family,
sometimes they don't agree with what i do,
but thats me,,
thats who i am,
i rather give than recieve,,
