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 repaired their boats and left.
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 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 for help, "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. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he even forgot
to ask the elder his name.
When they arrived at dry land, the elder went his own way. Love
realizing how much he owed the elder and 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."
