A soldier approached his officer, seeking his permission to fetch his friend who is not yet back from the battlefield. The officer refused permission stating that his friend would be probably dead and that there was no point in going out and losing his life too.
Unmindful of the consequence, the soldier went and an hour later returned, mortally wounded, carrying his dead friend.
The officer was furious; “I told you he was dead. Now I’ve lost both of you. Tell me, was it worth going out there to bring in a corpse?”.
The dying man replied, “Oh, it was sir. When I got to him he was still alive. And he said to me, ‘Jack, I was sure you would come for me'.”
Friendship has no fear. It expresses itself in sacrifice. Humanity survives purely because of love for each other.
Yrs lovingly,
Adele
