When we are young, we take decisions in such a haste, we tend to forget all the people who are directly or indirectly linked to our life. Miguel after getting expelled from his high school in Costa Rica, moved to Boston to stay with his sister.

Upon his marriage, he started to realize how it feels to be with your loved ones. His wife made him feel how wonderful it is to surround yourself with only your loved one. 

In order to show his regret, he decided to step out of his comfort zone and make a movie related to the story which happened to him. 

He directed the 1990s hit movie, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

Talking about why he went for that type of movie, he stated,

“I’ve gotten married, finally. I started to realize I didn’t appreciate my family as much as should have when I was young. The story of Alexander is about a kid that takes his family for granted and then realizes how lucky he is to have them. I realized I really could put my heart in this film. It was something I needed.”

Though the actor remains silent about the identity of his beloved wife, we can take a guess she is a wonderful person who even makes a man like Miguel, who had no sympathy towards his family, regrets his decision.
