Love wanted to persevere until the last
possible moment. When the island was almost sinking, 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 for you.
Love decided to ask Vanity who was 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 for
help, “Sadness, let me go with you.”
“Oh, Love, I’m so sad that I need to be
myself.”
Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was
too 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. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he
even forgot to ask the elder her name. When they arrived at dry land, the elder
went his own way.
Love realizing how much he owed the elder,
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 Great Love is.”
