Today`s Story. The Feelings Island Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge and all of the others, including Love... One day, it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all repaired their 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 decided to ask for help. Richness was passing by Love 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 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 was close by, so Love asked for help: "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. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he even forgot to ask the elder her name. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Love realizing how much he owed the elder 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." |

Today`s Story: Who can say There once was very poor man living in a village who had a very fine horse. So fine, in fact, that the lord of the castle wanted to buy it. But the old man always refused. "To me this horse is not merely an animal. He's a friend. How could I sell you my friend?" One morning he went to the stable and found his horse gone. All the villagers said, "We told you! You should have sold your horse. Now he's been stolen instead. What terrible luck." "Bad luck or good luck," the old man said. "Who can say?" Everyone laughed at him. But 15 days later the horse returned, followed by a whole herd of wild horses. He had escaped from the stable, courted a young mare, and returned with the rest of the herd following behind! "What luck!" the villagers cried. The old man and his son began training the wild horses. But a week later the man's son broke his leg trying to train one of the horses. "Bad luck," said his friends. "What are you going to do now without your son to help you? You who are already so poor." "Bad luck, good luck, who can say?" the old man replied. A few days later an army belonging to the lord of the land passed through the village and forced all the young men to become soldiers. All..except the old man's son, because of his broken leg. "How lucky you are," the villagers cried. "All our children are gone to war, but you've been able to keep your son. Our sons will probably be killed..." The old man replied, "Bad luck, good luck... who can say?" The future comes to us in bits and pieces. We never know what lies in store for us. But if you always maintain a positive attitude the doors of chance remain open, and you for sure will be a happier person. ;-) ................................................................ "Remember that happiness doesn't depend on what you are or on what you possess, but only on how you think." Dale Carnegie "Contentment brings happiness even in poverty. Discontent brings poverty, even in wealth." Confucius So take your day as it comes.... ;-) |
