Male Female

Well, I think I have a good memory because I remember things very well, but sometimes I also forget due to my hectic lifestyle and busy schedule. I remember once I forgot my appointment because it was my brother's wedding. I had a major responsibility as the sister of the groom, and I was busy with all the arrangements and rituals. Actually, every year I have my health assessment checkup, and before that, I had never missed it. Unfortunately, my appointment and my brother's wedding were on the same day, and because of the wedding, I missed my appointment. I think the wedding was more important for me, but I really felt guilty when I received a call from my doctor. He said that I missed my appointment, and I felt sorry to him as well. Then I requested the doctor to reschedule my appointment, and I got my appointment after two weeks. I set a reminder so that I would not forget this time and could reach on time. I think there should be a balance in our lives, and we should not miss out on any other important things as well.
