Horror gripped the heart of a World War I soldier, as
he saw his lifelong friend fall in battle. Caught in a
trench with continuous gunfire whizzing over his head,
the soldier a sked his Lieutenant if he could go out
into the "no man's land" between the tren ches to
bring his fallen comrade back. "You can go," said the
Lieutenant, "but I don't think it will be worth it.
Your friend is probably dead and you may throw your
life away." The Lieutenant's words didn't matter, and
the soldier went an yway. Miraculously, he managed to
reach his friend, hoisted him onto his shoulder and
brought him back to their company's trench. As the two
of them tumbled in together to the bottom of the
trench, the officer checked the wounded soldier, then
looked kindly at his friend. "I told you it wouldn't
be worth it," he said. "Your friend is dead and you
are mortally wounded." "It was worth it, Sir," said
the soldier. "What do you mean by worth it?" responded
the Lieutenant. "Your friend is dead." "Yes Sir," the
private answered, "but it was worth it because when I
got to him, he was still alive and I had the
satisfaction of hearing him say.... "JIM... I KNEW
YOU'D COME."
Many times in life, whether a thing is worth doing or
not, really depends on how u look at it. Take up all
your courage and do something your heart tells you to
do so that you may not regret not doing it later in
your life... "A true friend is one who walks in, when
the rest of the world walks out." Life is short,
Always treasure what you have now or you will regret
it. To handle a hard situation, try a soft answer. Let
the spirit of friendship in us remain forever.
