Island of feelings
Once upon a time there was an island where
all the feelings lived; Happiness, Sadness,
Knowledge, and all the others......, including
Love.
One day it was announced to all of the
feelings that the island was going to sink to
the bottom of the ocean.
So all the feelings prepared their boats to
leave.
Love was the only one that stayed. She
wanted to preserve the island until the last
possible moment.
When the island was almost totally under
water, Love decided it was time to leave. She
began looking for someone to ask for help.
Just then Richness was passing by in a
grand boat. Love asked, "Richness, Can I
come with you on your boat?" Richness
answered, "I'm sorry, but there is a lot of
silver and gold on my boat and there would
be no room for you."
Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help
who was passing in a beautiful vessel. Love
cried out, "Vanity, help me please."
I can't help you", Vanity said, "You are all
wet and will damage my beautiful boat."
Next, Love saw Sadness passing by. Love
said, "Sadness, please let me go with you.
"Sadness answered, "Love, I'm sorry, but, I
just need to be alone now."
Then, Love saw Happiness. Love cried out, "
Happiness, please take me with you. "But
Happiness was so overjoyed that he didn't
hear Love calling to him."
Love began to cry. Then, she heard a voice
say, "Come Love, I will take you with me." It
was an elder. Love felt so blessed and
overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder his
name. When they arrived on land the elder
went on his way."
Whoz that ?????
Love realized how much she owed the elder.
Love then found Knowledge and asked, "Who
was it that helped me?" "It was Time",
Knowledge answered. "But why did Time
help me when no one else would?", Love
asked.
Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and
sincerity, answered, "Because only Time is
capable of understanding how great Love
is."
