Once upon a time, there was an island where all the
feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and
all of the others, including Love. One day it was
announced to the feelings that the island would
sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for
Love.
Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to
hold out until the last possible moment.
When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask
for help.
Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love
said, "Richness, can you take me with you?"
Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of
gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here
for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by
in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"
"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might
damage my boat," Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me
go with you."
"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by
myself!"
Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy
that she did not even hear when Love called her.
Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will
take you." It was an elder. So blessed and
overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where
they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the
elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed
the elder,
Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped
me?"
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered,
"Because only Time is capable of understanding how
valuable Love is:fr:
