How many ten years do we have?

I found this chinese movie clip very interesting and really meaningful. For those who don't understand I'll translate the story narrated into english for all. The story is talking about "The Ladder of Life". The story begins like:-

There was a young married couple living in 80 storreys high of a building. One day, they were back from mountain hiking, and found that there's a power cut in their lift of the building. The young couple is carrying a big bag pack they bring to hiking. They are in sweat and hurrying for a nice warm bath. Running out of option, the wife initiated to the husband that they will climb up the building using the staircase. The husband agreed and step by step, both climbed the stairs toward their home.
When they reached the 20th floor, the husband proposed to the wife that they could leave their bag packs on the 20th floor. When the electric restore, both can take the lift back to the 20th storey to collect their bags. The wife noded and praised the husband for being such smart! So, they left their burden and continued to climb the stairs joyfully.
When they reached the 40th floor, they were tired and they only reached half of their journey back home. With another 40 more storeys of stairs to climb, they started to quarrel and blaming each other for not noticing the power cut off earlier. Both were quarreling all the way towards the 60th floors!
When they reached 60th floor, both are in exhaustion. They don't even have the energy to continue their quarrels. The husband told his wife to stop the meaningless quarrel together and use their remaining energy to walk slowly toward the 80th floor where their home is.
Finally, they reached to the 80th floor. The husband was looking at his wife and asked her to bring out the keys to open their door. The wife replied: "Aren't the keys with you?" With shocked, they realized that their keys were left on the 20th floor with their bag packs.

The story is some how showing the resemblance of our life. When we are born till the age of 20's. We live under the care of our parents/guardians. Their expectations on us are just like us carrying the heavy bag packs. After 20's, we'll leave the bags and live happily for the rest of the 20 years without restrain. Once we reached the age of 40's, we'll start to regret for not doing well over the pass 20 years. We'll start to blame the company we work for, blaming the government of our country for not taking good care of us!
Once we reach the age of 60's, there is not much remaining energy or life left on us. So we'll bluff ourselves and comfort our own by telling ourselves to stop complaining and treasure the moment left in our life. At the 80's where nothing much is left in our life, looking back to the ages that we've been through, we only realized that our ideals, our dreams are still left at the age of 20's, undone; unrealized; unfulfilled!!!

The story is to encourage and enlighten the people to work very hard on what we desired for, to realize what we really want and leave no regret in this life!
