There is a couple..they lived in richness with their children..the wife take care of their children everyday, while the husband going out with his business, make money as much as he could. This wife, sometimes felt lonely, without his husband near her. Of course, she also want to be with her husband, laughing and sometimes have date with her husband like in early marriage. the wife felt so upset with her husband because he have no time to be with family and always busy with business and client. one day, the wife get angry and text her husband... "I WANT TO TALK WITH YOU ABOUT US. WRITE 10 BAD THINGS THAT YOU DON'T LIKE ABOUT ME. THEN WE WILL MEET AT THE PLACE WHERE WE 1ST MET." The husband reply, "OKEY" days to days, it is the day they want to meet. both of them silent. they change the envelope and walk without talking. two weeks later, there is a bad news. the husband passed away in an accident. the wife remember of the envelope and read it. the wife shocked when he read the letter. she crying and crying. she remember of his husband. she remember on what she write on the letter she give to her husband. The letter: "YOU ARE THE BEST WIFE THAT 1 EVER HAD" She crying...how she regret what she write to his husband. if things could be repeat.......... (The story from my emotional intelligence's teacher in class today. Yeah, i was surprised too to heard this story. to conclude, always be positive and throw away negative thought in our mind)

Hi dear, Yes, the story is good. The results can be anything. So being positive is not a bad thing. We should calculate the things that could happen in the immediate future. A positive thinking and hard work and better understanding is a pre requisite for a better living. Thanks for your wonderful story. Regards, Thank-s

Yes, Ema, an emotional story. And after reading it, I think of it more! Like you said, we should think of things positively. Negative thoughts always make us sader and actually, the reality is not so bad. In another side, I think we should spend some time with our family and friends, even if we're so busy. Yes, we always say, I need more money to give better things to my family, but the most important is to stay with them and share your time and communicate with them fully. It's also quite important! If the husband in this story didn't work so hard, maybe his wife won't think in that way. Thirdly, I think communication is also key. If they talked face to face, instead of changing envelopes, maybe there was less regrets for each other. So...I'm lucky to read this story here. Thanks you! It tells me I should treasure my family and everyone/everything around me.

Yes. The story enlighten us into a good positive reaction. Sometimes because of our boredom we go into negative actions that we think it is the right things to do. We never consider of what our partner doing why he is busy and for what reason. Understanding is the key to lead us into positive way of life. How we handle the situations along the way. Patience also can help us. These are also contribute to our attitude. I was sad to the story and i touched. Thanks and be happy..

Aww how sad... Negative thoughts are like cancerous tumors. They grow and spread poison like wild bushfires. And that's not good. I believe what you said about Being Positive!

I think sometimes we may feel confused or puzzled about the people around us. We may not catch their felling,however,we are always on their mind. As a family member or one of his best friends, we should place ourselves on their stand.At this monent giving ourselves a positive implication is very important. Maybe they are very busy with their business,or they are burried in their work and their study.So we need to be considerate and understandable as well

thanks for a wonderful emotional story. I will try to make the most of my time here, and in the real world too. taking the hint, I will just go out of this room, and express my thanks to my beloved wife. It is also time for my kids to comeback from school, so, I think, I will take a break from the computer. .. may be I will take them for dinner. thanks. My respects to you Madam,

Wow that touched me and how true, to always be positive. I think if more couples did this, except instead of writing 10 bad things, they write 10 good things, then marriages could have a better chance..:)

Oh, if it would be so simple! But sometimes, when we get angry, we are mean to those who love us. And then we feel sorry for what we've said, but sometimes, like in your story, it's too late to apologise. I think in our relationships we have to act like there will be no tomorrow. We should be carefull not to hurt our friends and family, as they might not be with us someday, and then our regrets would be useless.
