Long time ago...
Long time ago all feelings and intellectual values of people lived on an island:
“Joy”, “Sadness”,” Knowledge”, and others. “Love” lived together with them too.
Once “Feelings” noticed that the island was plunging into the ocean and soon would sink. All got into their boats and left the island.
“Love” wasn’t in a hurry and waited till the last minute. When there wasn’t any hope and she saw that the island was almost gone under the water she begin began calling for help.
“Wealth’s” luxurious ship was sailing near. “Love” asked to take her on the ship, but “Wealth” said that on the ship there was a lot of jewelry, gold and silver, and there was no place for “Love”.
“Love” asked the “Pride”... But in response she heard that it could violate discipline and perfection on the aboard.
With cries for help “Love” begged “Sorrow”. "Oh “Love” – “Sadness” answered, - I am so sad that I must be alone."
“Joy“sailed near island, but she was enjoying herself so much , that she even didn’t notice "Love”.
Suddenly “Love heard a voice:
"Come here, I'll take you with me."
“Love” saw the grey-haired old man, and she was so happy that she forgot to ask his name. When they reached the earth old man sailed on.
When the boat with old man disappeared, “Love” checked herself .... because she hadnt even thanked the old man.
Then “Love” asked to “Knowledge”: "Knowledge”, tell me, who saved me? '".
"It was “Time”," - replied “Knowledge”.
"Time?" - Surprised “Love” - How did time help me?
“Knowledge” replied: "Only time understands and knows how important Love is in life."
