I have missed many things by just ,that just is points,coins,rank,time.I have missed really good college by just few ranks,I have missed getting qualified for jobs by 6-7 marks,I have missed payment in ptcs by 1 dollars many a times.I have missed my school bus by two minutes many times that is uncountable,I have missed my college classes by 5 seconds. So many instances are there which I can tell you,have you also missed something?

I've missed a good college because I was left behind by 'just' a few ranks. Well you prepare for that entrance for two years,lock yourself up in your room containing only books and miss your desired college by 'just' a few ranks-how does it feel? I felt nothing..It just happens! Back in secondary school I was overshadowed by the topper by 'just' a few marks in the board exams..and believe me there's really no satisfaction being at the second position! Well,life is full of these instances as we sometimes catch a train at the last moment there are certain times when we do miss the train by chance at zero hour! You just can't help it!

That's exactly how I felt at first, but as time passed by I learned to leave it in the past. It doesn't haunt me anymore.

I have missed the valedictory title in high school by just 0.33. Yeah, that is the difference of our general weighted average, and to tell you, I cried a lot because of that. I have also missed second semester enrollment just by P4000 (equivalent to $80) school debt (the university I was in doesn't allow a student to enroll if he/she still has unsettled accounts). Talk about missed chances. But I am okay now. Those things don't make me cry anymore. I believe that those unfortunate situations happen for a reason.
