[00:02.09]The Earthly Treasure 尘世之贵


[00:07.43]In the deep winter, natural flowers tend to shrivel;


[00:11.70]while, the flowers of friendship and love stand to bloom fragrantly, 


[00:16.43]as a consequence of watered love.


[00:19.47]Is It Worth It? 是否值得


[00:26.61]Horror gripped the heart of the World War I soldier 


[00:30.52]as he saw his lifelong friend fall in battle.


[00:34.60]Caught in a trench 1 with continuous gunfire whizzing over his head,


[00:39.08]the soldier asked his lieutenant 2 if he might go out into the “No Man’s Land”


[00:44.55]between the trenches 3 to bring his fallen comrade back.


[00:48.60]“You can go,” said the Lieutenant, “but I don’t think it will be worth it.


[00:54.18]Your friend is probably dead and you may throw your own life away.”


[00:59.22]The Lieutenant’s words didn’t matter, and the soldier went anyway.


[01:03.81]Miraculously he managed to reach his friend, hoisted 4 him onto his shoulder,


[01:09.83]and brought him back to their company’s trench.


[01:12.67]As the two of them tumbled in together to the bottom of the trench,


[01:16.72]the officer checked the wounded soldier, then looked kindly 5 at his friend.


[01:22.08]“I told you it wouldn’t be worth it,” he said.


[01:25.84]“Your friend is dead, and you are mortally wounded.”


[01:29.63]“It was worth it, though, sir,”the soldier said.


[01:33.90]“How do you mean ‘worth it’?”responded the Lieutenant.“Your friend is dead!”


[01:41.12]“Yes sir," the private answered. 


[01:44.15]“But it was worth it because when I got to him, he was still alive,


[01:49.00]and I had the satisfaction of hearing him say, 


[01:52.24]‘Jim, I knew you’d come.’”


[01:54.90]Many a time in life, 


[01:57.60]whether a thing is worth doing or not really depends on how you look at it.


[02:02.78]Take up all your courage and do something your heart tells you to do 


[02:07.98]so that you may not regret not doing it later in life.
