Is true love hard to find?
True love isn't hard to find.  You just have to know where to look.
An old woman sat on the antique rattan rocking chair.  Her
eyeglasses were perched precariously on her nose as she
concentrated on  her sewing chores.  A gentle breeze swept
the wisp of whitish hair on her  temples. Beside her sat her teen-age
daughter.  She was like a fresh  flower recently bloomed.  Without
warning she suddenly  blurted out.  "Grandma, why is true love so
difficult to find?"  The old woman with a kindly face stopped sewing and
touched her granddaughter's head affectionately.  After a moment, the
young girl cuddled closer resting her head on the old
woman's  lap. "Listen and I will tell you why."  began the grandmother.

"Many centuries ago, when the world was young, true love  existed
everywhere.  It was available for asking.  Because
of this,  men and women took true love for granted, so God decided to
keep true love."  She stopped and smiled as she gently
stroke the young girl's soft tresses.  "God asked a pair of angels to
keep true love.  First, they buried true love in the ground.  But man
and woman easily dug it out. Next, the angels took true love to the
highest mountains. But again man and woman easily climbed to the top.
Then the angels submerged true love into the deepest sea.  Man and
woman swam to the bottom of the body of water and with ease retrieved 
true love."  "So true love is easy to find."  commented the young girl.
"For man and woman will dig, climb and, swim."
"Yes, but finally the angels kept true love in the hearts of man
and woman.  Since then people have had difficulty searching for
true love.  For they look everywhere except in the one
place that should keep it - the heart."
