A
story to share - true friend

Horror gripped the heart of the World
War 1 soldier as he saw his lifelong friend fall in battle.
Caught in a trench with continuous gunfire whizzing over
his head, the soldier asked his lieutenant if he might
go out into the "no man's land" between the
trenches 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
advice didn't matter, and the soldier went anyway. Miraculously
he managed to reach his friend, hoist him onto his shoulder
and bring 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, and then looked
kindly at his friend.

be worth it," he said. "Your friend is dead and
you are mortally wounded." "It was worth it, though,
sir," said the soldier. "What do you mean; 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.."May
each and every one of you be blessed with the company of
TRUE FRIENDS." "A true friend
is one who walks in, when the rest of the world walks out."
War doesn't determine who's right. War only determines who's
left.
