The wife asked the husband, “In this life, what did you miss?”

When she was 25, the husband replied, “I missed a chance of finding a new job.”

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 chance of seeing my closed relative before his last breath.”

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

At 65, the husband hurried replied, “I missed the dentist’s appointment.”

At 75, the wife didn’t ask the husband any more, 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, “43In this life, I didn’t miss having you!”

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

In the busy city life, there are many people who are always busy with work. These people revolve(旋转) their lives around their jobs. They are unwilling to spend time on health care. They missed the chance to be with their children in their growing up. They neglect(忽略) the loved ones who care for them, and also their health.

44Nobody knows what is going to happen one year from now.

Life is not permanent(永恒的), so always live in the now. Express your gratitude to your loved ones in words. Show your care with actions. Treat every day as the last day of life. In this way, when you are gone, your loved ones would have nothing to feel sorry about.
