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 constructed boats left, except for love.
Love was the only one who stayed. 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 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."
Sadness was close by, love asked, "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 he was so happy that he did not even hear when love called him.
Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at a dry land the elder went his own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder, love asked Knowledge, another elder, "who helped me?" "It was time." Knowledge answered. "Time?" Asked love, "but why did time help me?" Knowledge smiled and answered:"Because only time is capable of understanding how valuable love is."
