Once upon a time, there was an Island
where all
the feelings lived:
Happiness, Sorrow, Knowledge etc, including
Love. One day it was announced to the feelings
that the island would sink.
So all repaired their own boats and left. Love was
the only one who stayed. Love wanted to
persevere until the last possible moment. When
the island was almost sinking, Love decides to
ask for help.
Richness was passing by in a great 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 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.
Sorrow was close by so Love asked for
help, "Sorrow, let me go with you." But Sorrow
said, "Oh…..Love, I am so sad that I need to be
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 forgets to ask the
elder her name.
When they arrived on a dry land, the Love 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"
Love is a wonderful feeling and most of us are
either in love or secretly admire somebody. But
there is one thing about love. It needs time to
grow, to mature and to last forever. Time teaches
us many things about the other person. Just think
of your parents, your siblings. You know that they
have faults yet you love them. This is the kind of
unconditional love you must be able to give to that
somebody special in your life.
The main requisite for love is that one must be
ready for it. Most of us feel that once we are in
college, we must have boyfriend/girlfriend or there
is something wrong with us. But this isn’t love; it’s
toeing the line. This is also the main reason why
many of us fall in and out of love frequently.
Love requires one to be strong and resilient
because there will always be heartaches and one
must be ready for them all, this one must be
emotionally mature. Moreover, getting attracted to
a good looking guy/gal and then looking out for a
better looking one is just fooling around and never
be mistaken for love.
Over time, you begin understanding each other for
what you really are not the fancy dresses and
costly gifts, but the real person. The person who
will accept you with all your faults and weaknesses
truly loves you. This understanding takes time.
Love is a wonderful emotion but, like good wine, it
needs to mature. It must weather many a storm
before it becomes strong enough to last a lifetime
and more.
…Love may be wonderfull BUT love also hurt… I may be sorry for what happen. I may regret my decision. But i think that will be the best for us. We are both just inmature to handle relationship. Love is not possessing someone. Love is also not asking for more. Love is accepting the good and bad of the other party. This is the point which both of us cannot face it. Neither of us wish to accept both the good and bad. We may have tried but it does not work out. We may know the problem but no one cares. Only time understand love. But we were too rush and we neglect time. Now only time can heal the hurt in us.
