WHAT I'VE BEEN NOTICING ABOUT SOME OF THE PEOPLE ON THIS SITE.....

Okie now, I'm changing these words since were all on different thinking levels here. I know people are sad for many different reasons. And love can be the cause of it. But true love (God's love) can heal the pain. When I'm talking about love, I'm talking about God's love which is the most truest love. I didn't mean that sad people don't have the ability to love, cause we all love. Pain is apart of life. We grow from pain. I just simply wanted to cheer people up. You know spread a smile or two. That's all. *huggs*

HOW GREAT LOVE IS

Once upon a time there was an island

where all the feelings lived; happiness,

sadness, knowledge, and all the others,

including love.



One day it was announced to all of the

feelings that the island was going to

sink to the bottom of the ocean. So all

the feelings prepared their boats to leave.



Love was the only one that stayed. She

wanted to preserve the island paradise

until the last possible moment. When

the island was almost totally under, love

decided it was time to leave.



She began looking for someone to ask

for help. Just then Richness was passing

by in a grand boat. Love asked, "Richness,

Can I come with you on your boat?"

Richness answered, "I'm sorry, but there is

a lot of silver and gold on my boat and there

would be no room for you anywhere."



Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help

who was passing in a beautiful vessel.

Love cried out, "Vanity, help me please."

"I can't help you", Vanity said, "You are

all wet and will damage my beautiful boat."



Next, Love saw Sadness passing. Love

said, "Sadness, please let me go with you."

Sadness answered, "Love, I'm sorry but I

just need to be alone now."



Then, Love saw Happiness. love cried out,

"Happiness, please take me with you." But

Happiness was so over overjoyed that he

didn't hear Love calling to him.



Love began to cry. Then she heard a voice

say, "Come Love, I will take you with me."

It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and

overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder

his name. When they arrived on land the

elder went on his way. Love realized how

much she owed the elder.



Love then found Knowledge and asked,

"It was Time", Knowledge answered.

"But why did Time help me when no one

else would?", Love asked. Knowledge

smiled and with deep wisdom and sincerity,

answered, "Because only Time is capable

of understanding how great Love is."
