Question

【题目】 "In this life, what did you miss?" The wife asked the husband when she was 25. Despondently(沮丧地), the husband replied, "I missed a new job chance."

When she was 35, the husband angrily told her that he had just missed the bus.

At 45, the husband sadly said, "I missed the opportunity seeing my close relative before his last breath."

At 55, the husband said disappointingly. "I missed a good chance to retire,"

At 65, the husband hurriedly replied, "I missed visiting my dentist."

At 75, the wife did not ask the husband anymore, the husband was kneeling in front of the very sick wife. Remembering the question the wife used to ask him, this time he asked the wife the same question. The wife, with a smile and peaceful look, replied, "In this life, I did not miss having you!"

The husband was full of tears. He always thought that they could be together forever. He was always busy with work and other things. So much so he had never been thoughtful to his wife. The husband hugged the wife tightly and said, "Over 50 years, how I had allowed myself to miss your deep love for me."
