As we are floating on a rough time, so it came up to my mind that how it happened, if the feelings itself could be living being. Why not trying & making a story about all the emotions are characterised and see how it comes; so let’s see, here we go…
There was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness,
Sadness, Knowledge, and all the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island
would sink, so all constructed boats and 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.”
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 also passed close by, so 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 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. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where
they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went his own way. Love felt relieved that he is in dry
land but he has forgotten something real serious. Realizing how much she owed
to the elder, Love asked Knowledge,
another elder, “Who helped me? I forgot to ask the name!”
“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 valuable Love is.”
Similarly in the practical life if we start thinking
logically, we can find how important love
is even after so many stories of hatred are flowing around us. When you think
about love, you probably picture couples holding hands or driving off into the
sunset together. You might picture yourself falling in love with the one
special person of your dreams. You might even have a list of things your
perfect mate should embody. The thing is, there are many biological factors
that go into “falling in love.” Love is overly romanticized in today’s culture.
We can at least give it try to be love
able to the next person we are talking to, it can be anyone, be it our housemaid
or the homemaker, be it our employee or to our kids, to everyone. In everyday life
we are bound to come across many unknown faces around us, but have we asked ourselves
that among them how many are still willing to meet us after our first meet? It’s
due to our lifestyle which has forgotten to show the warmth, the ‘love’. It because of our dogma that we
say can’t. We can come across
whatever is happening but we should be remembering that ultimately ‘love’ will always sustain in great
civilisation like us, cheers!!!
