Array ( [sid] => 17279 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => You [time] => 2003-05-09 04:35:00 [hometext] => Inspiration for all those who need it. [bodytext] => Why do you do what you do?
Why do you go out on a limb?
Why do you look for the good within?
Why do you stick up for me?
Why do you stick up for your country?
Why do you lead, do you think people will follow?
Why do you think it's going to be a better tomorrow?
Why is your faith so big and strong?
Why do you choose the rights from wrongs?
Why take a chance?
Why do you love?
Why do you pray to the GOD above?
Why be a martyr?
Why be a saint?
Why give all the pleasure and take all the pain?
Why be important?
Why be a success?
Why be so happy when you can be so depressed?
Why do you help and do what you do?
You do it so people can say they knew you.

The questions really need a better answer..the answer you have given at the end of the poem is not justifiable in respect of martyrs and saints..any the questions are interesting.. venkat
