What is love?
An elf sits in a branch with dark green leaves,pondering.
There is almost no breeze here,if any.
A bird flies down,stops at a branch,and looks at the rice fields in the distance,which is about to mature.
The elf pulls out a bunch of golden rice and asks:"do you love it?"
"Yes."
"why?"
"Because it can drive away hunger from me."
After he pecks up,he lightly combs his sleek feathers with his beak.
The elf takes out another bunch and asks:"do you still love it?"
The bird raises his head ,gazes at fountain in the distance and anwers:" i love fountain over there for i am thirsty now."
Then the elf brings him a leaf filled with fountain in it.
The bird drinks up, and is ready to fly away.
The elf sretches his finger-tips and says"i have one more question,"when the bird stops above.
"What is more important thing for you to do?there are rice and fountain here."
"I am going to the valley full of hyacinths that are blossoming now.what i really want to see is that specific one.
"Why?does she help you drive away hunger ?"
"no.'
"can she nourish your thirst?“
"no,either."
"so why do you want to see her?"
"because i need her."
"why?"
"because i love her."
" what do you love her for?"
"because i miss her every day and night."
"why do you miss her?"
"because i love her."
After a moment's silence,the elf raises another question:
"why do you  love that hyacinth only for there are many hyacinths there?"
"because she is unique."
"why?does she have something different from others?"
"of course." "where does she different from others?"
"She is the only one i love."
The elf smiles at last,and the bird flutters and flies away.
