Joe and Edna's aberration
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.
Joe and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool,
Joe suddenly jumped into the deep end.
He quickly 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.
Thus, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness!
The bad news is, Joe hung himself in the bathroom
with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him…
I am so sorry but he's dead.”
Edna quickly replied, “He didn't hang himself! I put him there to dry!
How soon can I go home?”
Happy Mental Health Day!
Life is short, so remember, “Always drink the good wine first!”
