YouDay: The island of emotions

Coach LaMonte shares a parable about how we can keep love alive without giving into hate.

There was an island where all the emotions lived. One day a storm was bearing down on the island. Every emotion was fearful. But the wisdom and unselfishness of love made a boat for all the other emotions to escape.

All the emotions jumped on the boat except for one. Love took inventory on which emotions weren't on the boat. Love discovered it was hate. Love tried its best to bring hate onto the boat, but hate wouldn't budge.  All the other emotions begged love to leave hate behind, but love is love and couldn't leave an emotion behind.

Love remained with hate. All the other emotions found safety and survived, but love died because of hate! What is the lesson to be learned? It is not always easy to love but love is love and it's our responsibility to keep it alive.

Find love and work love, and keep love alive.
