Second chances...

They lost all their wealth including a palatial house that stood majestically in half acre of tropical land with jack fruit trees, myriad varities of mango and banana, scores of teakwood trees, and a land scaped lawn among others.

A decade later they were fortunate to buy it back from the very same couple to whom they had sold it. To me it sounded a bit celluliodish. We seldom hear something like that. Even if you have the money owning a previously sold property is not easy...especially when its a house and the present owner has no financial reason to sell it.

I believe it was destiny...and believe in the age old saying 'you cant win a desired love or land; it has to come over to you.'

This second chance has also restored the memories of their childeren that were lost in the dust that ensued the trauma of loss.

We all deserve second chances...be it a lost love, a job that slipped away or a terrible illness. Its only a question of how much we need it.
