LOVE AND TIME

CLINTON ₦001

Once upon a time,in an island there lived all the feelings and emotions: Happiness,Sadness, Knowledge,and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to them that the island would sink! So all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.                                                       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 boat. Love said,"Richness can you take me with you?".                                        Richness answered ,"Sorry Love I can't. There is alot of  gold and silver in my boat and so there is no place here for you."                                                        Love next asked Vanity who was also saling by. Vanity was also ready with the same answer.                                          "I can't help to, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.           Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness,take me  along with you."                           "Oh ..…... Love, l am so sad that I need to be by myself," sadness said in a sullen voice.                                           Happiness passed by Love too,but she was so preoccuppied with her happiness that she dis not even hear when Love called her.                                                   Suddenly there was a voice," Come,Live I will take you."It was an elder. An over joyed Love jumped up into the boat and in the process forget to ask where they were going.        When they arrieved  on a dry land,the elder went her own way.                                              Realizing how much was owed to the elder, Love asked Knowledge another elder,"Who helped me?" "It was Time,"Knowledge answered.          "Time?" thought Love. Then,as if reading the face of Love, Knowledge smiled and answerer "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.
