Love and Time

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 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."

When it comes to love matter, yeah no doubt, Time is the only one who could heal the wound! but letting the time to decide always, will make u feel even more devastated u know! so sometimes u have to be on ur own before someone else can actually help u!

Is it from Chicken Soup? Meaningful, yeah.
To BarBEE: funny?haha...you've got a totally different taste then hahaha...well...i wish it was true that i had written this myself. I actually got it from this source(dun remember hahah..)
To Ice: the story is definitely meaningful, dude...but i didn't write it myself...yeah time is the greatest healer that's why the author sent Time to rescue Love...
To Gaara: well yeah...i see your point there but maybe this time the emphasis is placed on Time, the greatest healer...
To Pheaktra: hahaha...i bet it is interesting
To Pheary: no not from Chicken Soup...got it from some source on the internet...
Time is the greatest healer? Oh my! It doesn't work that way all the time. Sometimes, time just make love getting worse and worse. :) hehe.. I like the story anyway... nice post ven ven!
To gaara: whoa..SO FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEHEHHE....ok ok lah...i know it doesn't work that way all the time, but after all, it was what the author intended to mean lah...hahha

but i'm sure TIME is the most efficient remedy!
To Ice: You may say so! But to ppl enjoying their love life, they dun talk about time or anything related to Time. So maybe Time comes to the aid of those broken up by Love...
yeah.. ven is right...
To gaara: oh?? smell sth fishy here lolz.....
Unknown said…
