　　Love and Time

　　Once upon a time, there was an island where all thefeelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, andall of the others, including Love. One day it wasannounced to the feelings that the island wouldsink, so all constructed boats and left. Except forLove.

　　Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted tohold out until the last possible moment.

　　When the island had almost sunk, Love decided toask 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 placehere for you."

　　Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please helpme!"

　　"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.

　　Sadness was 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 Lovecalled her.

　　Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed andoverjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dryland, the elder went her 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 with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable ofunderstanding how valuable Love is."

　　從前有一個(gè)島，所有的情感都住在那里：幸福、悲傷、知識(shí)和所有其它的，愛(ài)也不例外。一天，所有的情感聽說(shuō)小島即將沉沒(méi)，因此建造小船，紛紛離開，除了愛(ài)。

　　愛(ài)是唯一留下來(lái)的，因?yàn)樗Ｍ軋?jiān)持到最后一刻。

　　小島即將沉沒(méi)了，愛(ài)決定請(qǐng)求幫助。

　　富有駕著一艘大船從愛(ài)身邊經(jīng)過(guò)，愛(ài)說(shuō)，

　　“富有，你能帶上我么?”

　　富有回答說(shuō)：“不行，我的船上載滿金銀財(cái)寶，沒(méi)有你的地方。”

　　虛榮坐在漂亮的小船中從愛(ài)身邊駛過(guò)，愛(ài)問(wèn)：“虛榮，你能幫助我么?”

　　虛榮說(shuō)：“不行，你全身濕透，會(huì)弄臟我的船。”

　　悲傷的船靠近了，愛(ài)問(wèn)：“悲傷，請(qǐng)帶我走吧。”

　　“哦。。。愛(ài)，我太難過(guò)了，想一個(gè)人呆著。”

　　幸福經(jīng)過(guò)愛(ài)的身邊，它太開心了，根本沒(méi)聽見愛(ài)在呼喚。

　　于是，愛(ài)問(wèn)另一位老者--知識(shí)：“誰(shuí)幫助了我?”

　　知識(shí)說(shuō)：“是時(shí)間。”

　　“時(shí)間?”愛(ài)問(wèn)：“但是時(shí)間為什么幫助我?”

　　知識(shí)睿智地微笑道：“因?yàn)橹挥袝r(shí)間了解愛(ài)的價(jià)值。”
