Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was having a goodtime. Suddenly, a warning of a strong storm was announced, so all rushed to their boats. Yet, Love did not wish to run away quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened, Love realized it was time to leave. But there were no boats to use. Love looked around with hope.

Just then Richness was passing by Love in a large boat. Love shouted, “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(虚荣) who was also passing by in a beautiful boat for help, But Vanity said with a cold voice, “No, I can’t take you with me. My boat will get dirty with your mummy feet.”

Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. “No, I can’t take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself.”

When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help. But Happiness was so happy that it hardly cared about anyone else.

Love was growing worried and hopeless. Just then somebody called out, “Come, Love, I will take you with me.” Love did not know who was being so kind, but jumped onto the boat happily.

After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. Love asked, “Knowledge, do you know who was so kind to give me a lift when no one else wished to help?”

Knowledge smiled, “Oh, that was Time.”

“Time?” asked Love. “But why did Time help me?” Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, “Because only Time is able to understand how valuable(有价值的) Love is.”

There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung（悬挂）on our necks. A small bag at the front is filled up with other people's mistakes, while the big one at the back is full of our own shortcomings (短处).

　 So it’s easy to find other people's mistakes, but it's hard for us to see our mistakes behind us.

　 There was a boy, Tommy, who always opened the front bag to check what was in it. He saw other people's mistakes very quickly. When Simon was impatient with him, he said to Simon, "It's so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be friends with you."

　 He told his mother about Jack's dishonesty. "Jack takes my things without asking. He also forgets to return them." Tommy himself did not like sharing his things with anyone.

　 When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, "'You are not such a friendly person."

　 He thought Harry was too proud of his rich parents. But Tommy was as proud of himself because he could not see any of his own mistakes! He also could not understand why he did not get on well with others.

　 If only Tommy would switch(交换)the bags around, he would find his own impatience, dishonesty, bad manners and vanity (虚荣), which were no better than that of Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.
