isn't it funny how human to human interaction can cause the greatest joys on earth...
how just the thought of being together again can make the hardest experiences endurable...

There was once a soldier on the battle field... he saw that a comrade, whom he had been best friends with since childhood, had been struck down on the field. He wanted to go out and help him, but his lieutenant pulled him back and said 'are you crazy? you are gonna get yourself killed, you won't be able to save him, his wounds are fatal.' But he did not listen and ran out anyway. A while later, he returned with wounds and alone. The lieutenant asked him, 'i told you you wouldn't be able to save him, look at you now... was it worth it?' And the soldier replied, "yes, it was worth it because when I got to him he said to me 'Jim, I knew you would come...' "
