A Love Story

When cleaning my book shelf, I came across a dairy which I used to write gazillion years ago, I'm not that old but relatively, while flipping through the pages I saw a love story which I have written in that dairy, after reading that love story I felt serenity in the midst of chaos. For a minute I forgot I wrote that in my dairy and read it as never read before.
Some years ago I came across a love story. It wasn't just an ordinary love story if was THE love story and it taught me a good deal of things esp.the true meaning of time. Not sure whom to blame but I have inherited impatience and it effects me in all aspects of my life. It can't be because of dad, he takes way too long to make up his mind and Maa, I almost never saw her rushing into things, Hmm, anyway it might not even be the case of inheritance but simply of arrogance which I have gained in different stages of life.
Sooo..yes the love story
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. All repaired their boats and left. Love wanted to preserve until the last possible moment.
When the island was almost sinking Love asked 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 ship. There is no place for you".
Love decided to ask Vanity, please help me "I can't help you love, you are all wet and might damage my boat" answered Vanity. 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 too 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 a dry land, the elder went it's own way, love realizing how much he owed the elder and asked knowledge (another elder) "Who helped me?" "It was time" Knowledge answered. "Time?, but why did time help me whereas everyone else refused?" Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered "Because only time is capable of understanding how great love is".
Hope you all can sit back and think about the last phrase and have patience with love because it takes ages for love to flourish
