Question

“In this life，what did you miss？”

The wife asked the husband when she was 25．Despondently （沮喪地），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 the age of 45，the husband sadly said，“I missed the chance seeing my close relative before his last breath．”

At 55，the husband said disappointedly，“I missed a good chance to retire （退休）．”

At 65，title husband hurriedly replied，“I missed visiting my dentist．”

At 75，the wife did not ask the husband any more，she was very sick．Remembering the question the wife used to ask him，this time the husband 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．He had never thought of his wife．The husband gave a big hug to the wife and said，“Over 50years，how I had allowed myself to miss your deep love for me．”

Life does not last forever，so always live in the now．Don’t neglect （忽視）the loved ones who care for you．Express your gratitude （感激）to your loved ones in words．Show your love 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．
