-What\u2019s that one wish for you?
-Oh, that one\u2019s easy.
-Yeah all right, let\u2019s hear it then.
-I wish..I wish I was as good of a boyfriend as I am a friend.
-Damn man..did you come up with that in therapy?
-No, why?
-Then how do you do that?
-Do what?
-Think about that stuff on your own? I mean you had that answer locked and ready to go. I mean I asked you just so I can get a bearing on where should I go and look for mine but it\u2019s like you were already too far for me.
-What, I don\u2019t think I was.
-I hate those fake humble moments of yours..
-Fair enough, sorry. So I once asked my niece who was 5 at the time that famous question: Who would you wanna have dinner with, dead or alive?Knowing she had no idea who Nikola Tesla was, Socrates, Caesar or any of the historic or present great people are. My nephew answered that Elon Musk would be cool to talk to. He was 10 at the time. I was like, hmm that\u2019s pretty smart for a 10 year old and I was so proud of him.
But then. Then she comes with a smile and just says: mom.

-Right? I mean I had to take a deep breath just to keep myself from being frozen in that moment of realisation for the rest of my life. By the time I took that breath and swallowed whatever that emotion was which was stuck in my throat, she added \u2018and dad\u2019. And that\u2019s it. That\u2019s the answer. Apparently you don\u2019t need to know everything to know what\u2019s most important. It seems the more you know the more you lose focus on what\u2019s really important. A 5 year old answered that question better than the 100% of people you or me could have asked. Who doesn\u2019t want a dinner with their mom and dad. Maybe you even make them laugh. Maybe they tell you a story you never heard before. Maybe I don\u2019t know what happens. But one thing I know for sure. That dinner.. is the best dinner you can ever have. So that\u2019s always how I answer. I forget everything and then it just comes to me. It\u2019s like that expression explain to me like I\u2019m five. That\u2019s how I answer. Just like i\u2019m five. That way I can never be wrong.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
