If you could relive one year of your life, which one would it be?
Indeed a tricky question to answer ! Mr. Bose wandered.
If I could relive one year of my life , which one it would be.. ummm…(With much thought and pondering, he replied) May be 2018!
His wife is the one who asked him this question.. a follow up question was ready from her end and asked impatiently and immediately
Why?
Mr Bose replied , ”That was the year which had so much experience for me. I completed graduation and started with a masters, my two closest family members passed away, you know that… And yes I met you . So growth wise I learnt so much. ”
Mrs. Bose replied, ” But you have lost them then how can you tell you want to relive that particular year. ”
Mr. Bose said, ” That’s a suspense. And will answer once you answer which is your favourite year ?”
Mrs. Bose thought for a while and replied, ” yes to class 11th and 12th of school life. We enjoyed them so much, the taste of first freedom. ”
Mr. Bose asked , ”Oh then you don’t want to relive the year we met right? ”
Mrs Bose said, ”I do like and love all the moments in which I met you but we lost them and the hardest part is that … I cannot rethink or relive those parts dear. ”
Mr. Bose said , ”ooh Life is all about perspectives, all about how you think and how you manage and execute and everyone is different. ”
Mrs Bose replied, ” Yes true that we all are different and hence our perspectives are , but I am waiting for so long to tell me why you chose 2018 irrespective of the fact that it’s one of the hardest years of our life . ”
Mr Bose replied, ” oh sure! See the question is relive not rebirth. So since I know the outcomes already I will be able to confront all the events better. Like when they passed away I was shattered.. maybe this time since I know already I will be able to handle better . ”
And also since I will handle better I will grow better positively and yes maybe I will not mess our first date too this time. ”
They both laughed together.
