i think there is a law that says if you anounce giving money to charity then it doesnt count.

Maybe there is, but i consider it more of "values". Nevertheless, either way, both's essence is correct.

I don't always trust the charitable organisations - they seem to pay high wages and that kind of troubles me. I used to write a column for free in a weekly paper; it was for stray dogs to find them new owners - that was really rewarding :)
I would love to 'do' things for those less fortunate, like build a school or something else tangible, I think acts mean more than cash.

thanks Leila... Jul 12, 2004
Nice to be ageed with :D
as for motivating Jamal towards a more charitable disposition....hmmm? After reading many of his posts, I don't think anyone can lead Jamal to anything he doesn't choose by himself. Have a lovely week all.

Tina i didnt get ur post wat did you mean by saying that i dont choose by myself???
i mean if u are tryin to say that other ppl influence my choices then it means it would be alot more easier for you to persuade me wouldnt it???

cause it sounds like u contradicting urself

entirely the opposite Jamal... Jul 14, 2004
I was simply saying that you seemed the sort of man who is sure of himself and NOT influenced by others. I believe you read me wrong Jamal.
I was complimenting your strength of character.

You do seem determined to doubt and mistrust all I write - why is this? I have no malice, no ill thoughts for others and am generally thought of as a nice person....you seem to feel otherwise about me. Shame, but such is life :?
