Once upon a time, there was an island where all the humans emotions and desires lived - Happiness, Sadness, Vanity, Knowledge and all the others, including Love.
One day there was an announcement that the island would soon sink. So everyone flew to his own vessel and prepared to sail away. Love wanted to preserve until the last possible moment. But when the island was almost submerged in water, he had to seek help.
Wealth was passing by in a grand boat, so he called out: "Can you take me with you?"
"No I can't," Wealth replied. " There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love turned to Vanity, who was also passing by, in a beautiful vessel: "Please help me!".
"I can't. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity said.
Sadness was close by, so Love called out: "Let me go with you,please."
"Oh Love, I'm so sad I need to be by myself!"
Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear Love calling. Suddenly, a voice rang out, "Come Love, I will take you." It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he forgot to ask him his name. When finally arrived on dry land, the elder went his own way.
Love, who realised the debt he owed, asked Knowledge, another elder : "Who was that?"
"It was Time."
"Time? But why did he help me?"
Knowlege smiled, then said: Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is."
What can I say? Time's boat wrecked half way through my journey and left me floating in the middle of the sea. The cause of it, He forgot to service his boat because he was buzy playing mahjong with Proscrastination.
Did I mention that Time can't swim??? DARN YOU TIME!!!!! @!#!@#^%
Shoud have induced Wealth with my left over pocket money given by Momma...
