“In this life, what did you miss?” The wife asked the husband when she was 25. The husband replied, “I missed a new job opportunity.” When she was 35, the husband angrily told her that he had just missed the bus. At 45, the husband said sadly, “I missed the chance to see my aunt before her last breath.” At 55, the husband said he missed a good chance to retire (退休). At 65, the husband complained. “I missed an appointment (预约) with a doctor,” he said. At 75, the wife did not ask the husband any more, the husband was sitting 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’s eyes were full of tears. He always thought that they could be together forever. He was always so busy with work and trifles (琐事) that he had never been thoughtful to his wife. The husband hugged the wife tightly and said, “Over 50 years, how could I allow myself to miss your deep love?”

In the busy city life, there are many people who are always busy with work. As a result, they neglect their loved ones. Life is not permanent, so always live in the moment.
