The Story of Love and Time

Once upon a time, in an island  lived all the feelings; Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, riches and all others, including Love. One day,there was a news outbreak that the island would sink, so all the feelings constructed boats and left. Except for Love who tend to stay behind to ensure the safe departure of others.

 Love decided to hold out until the last possible moment. When the island had almost sunk and every of his colleague had safely gone,he decided to ask for help.

Soon wealth was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said, “wealth, can you take me with you?”

but he answered, “No, I can’t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you.”

Anger was close by so Love asked, “Anger, let me go with you.” “Oh . . . Love, can't you see that i am so angry that I need to be by myself!”  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.


Happiness too passed by Love, but  was so busy 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 relieved 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. Realizing how much was owed the elder, Love asked Knowledge, his colleague who had earlier arrived before him, “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 valuable Love is.

CHRISTMAS-THE GIFT OF LOVE

A short story was told about a man who works very hard to put food on his table.He has a five year old daughter who was very beautiful and heart warming. just two days to Christmas she noticed her father was unhappy owing to the fact that his pocket was very lean. she decided to give his dad a surprise package in her little known way by using up the expensive gold wrap which his dad had the intention to sell to raise money.
Unfortunately on the Eve of Christmas when he got a buyer to buy his gold wrap, he saw that the child had used all of the expensive gold paper to decorate a box she had put under a faded Christmas tree. he became very upset about this and had to punish the child for her wrong deed.

However, the next morning the little girl, filled with the excitement of the season even though they had not much to celebrate, brought this gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy i want you to be happy!"

As he opened the box,he felt embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, now regretting how he had punished her.

But when he opened the beautifully wrapped box, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. " You don't give an empty present to somebody, there ought to be some package inside, however little" he said to the young child.

The little girl looked up at him with sad tears rolling from her eyes and whispered: "Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

Immediately the father was crushed by these words. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl and asked her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

Shortly after Christmas it was told that the young girl accidentally passed on. The father kept this little gift of love gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced with any challenge he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child.
Lesson
Christmas is more of love sharing and not necessarily material things.
Enjoy this Christmas but more importantly put smiles on the faces of the needy- That's what the season is all about-LOVE.

Who is the king of the forest?

When the Tiger jumped on Fox, Fox cried out, "How dare you attack the King of the Jungle!"

Tiger looked at him in amazement, "Nonsense! You are not King!"

"Certainly I am," replied Fox, "All the animals run from me in terror! If you want proof, come with me." Fox went into the forest with Tiger at his heels. When they came to a herd of deer, the deer saw Tiger behind Fox and ran in all directions.

They came to a group of monkeys. The monkeys saw Tiger behind Fox and they fled. Fox turned to Tiger and said, "Do you need more proof than that? See how the animals flee at the very sight me?!"

"I'm surprised, but I've seen it with my own eyes. Forgive me for attacking you, Great King." Tiger bowed low and with great ceremony he let Fox go.
