The Ironies of Life

Why is it that when the time came that you achieved success and financial independence the person you want to share your triumph with is gone?

Like your Dad who has been an inspiration to you did not see the business empire you are building or the flashy car that you drive because he passed away.  

Or your girlfriend whom you loved so much became impatient and decided she has to move on because she can't wait for you that long? 

Or your Mom who was there all the time guiding you with your homework accepted a job offer in America and was not able to hear your valedictory address?

Indeed life is just full of ironies ... everybody is clueless when it is going to pay you an unannounced visit!
