It can be really painful to be unlucky sometimes.
I was at the hospital today caring for a close relative who is receiving treatment. I stepped out of the ward briefly to buy something, and that was exactly when an NGO arrived to distribute diapers to mothers.
From what I heard, each mother received about 5–6 large packs of diapers. Even some people who had only come to visit patients got some.
Meanwhile, I have a 9 month old baby who uses about 4–5 diapers every day.
I couldn't help but ask myself, Why did they come at the exact moment I stepped out?
Sometimes, missing an opportunity by just a few minutes really stings.
