GREAT LOVE

Once upon a time: There was an Island where all the feelings Lived.

Happiness, Sadness, Vanity, Richness and all the other feelings including LOVE.

One day it was announced to all that the Island was about to sink to the bottom of the Ocean.

So they all prepared their boats to leave the Island. But...Love was the only one that stayed.

She wanted to preserve the Island “Paradise”, until the last moment.

When the Island was almost totally submerged underwater. Then Love decided it was time to leave, so she began looking for someone to ask for Help.

Just as “Richness” was pulling out with his Grand Boat. Love asked “Can I leave with you?”

He replied, “I’m sorry, but I have lots of Gold and Silver on my boat and there is no room anywhere for you.”

Vanity was behind him pulling out and Love asked him “Can I please come with you in your Beautiful Vessel?” Vanity replied “I can’t help you, your too wet and you will damage my Beautiful Vessel.”

Soon after “Sadness “ came by and Love immediately yelled out to her, “Can I please go with you?”  She replied quickly and said  “I’m sorry Love but I just want to be by myself alone right now.”

Then came “Happiness” and she cried out “Happiness may I please come with you?”

But Happiness was so overjoyed that He didn’t hear Love cry out for help.

So Love, began to cry until she heard a voice that said, “Come Love, I will take you with me.”
Love looked up and saw it was “Mr. Elder” But she felt so Blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to get his name.

So when they arrived on land, Mr. Elder went on his special way. Suddenly Love realized how much she owed to Mr. Elder. So she searched for Mr. Knowledge, and she found him.

She asked Mr. Knowledge, “Who was the Elder that helped me?”

Mr. Knowledge said Oh! That was “Time”! Love then asked “Why did Time help me, when no one else would?”

Then Mr. Knowledge smiled, and with deep sincerity and wisdom, He replied:

“BECAUSE ONLY TIME IS CAPABLE OF UNDERSTANDING HOW GREAT LOVE IS!”
