WHY ME ?

WHY ME ?

A Beautiful Message 

by Arthur Ashe . 

The Legendary Wimbledon Player was dying of AIDS 

which he got due to Infected Blood he received 

during a Heart Surgery in 1983 ! 

He received letters from his fans , one of which conveyed : 

" Why did God have to select you for such a bad disease ? " 

To this Arthur Ashe replied : 

50 Million children started playing Tennis , 

5 Million learnt to play Tennis , 

500 000 learnt Professional Tennis , 

50 Thousand came to Circuit , 

5 Thousand reached Grand Slam , 

50 reached Wimbledon , 

4 reached the Semifinals , 

2 reached the Finals and 

when I was holding the cup in my hand , I never asked God 

" Why Me ? " 

So now that I'm in pain how can I ask God 

" Why Me ? " 

Happiness keeps you Sweet ! 

Trials keep you Strong ! 

Sorrows keep you Human ! 

Failure keeps you Humble ! 

Success keeps you Glowing ! 

But only , Faith keeps you Going !

Sometimes you are not satisfied with your life , 

while many people in this world are dreaming of living your life . 

A child on a farm sees a plane fly overhead dreams of flying . 

But , A pilot on the plane sees the farmhouse & dreams of returning home . 

That's life !

Enjoy yours ... If wealth is the secret to happiness , 

then the rich should be dancing on the streets . 

But only poor kids do that . 

If power ensures security , then VIPs should walk unguarded . 

But those who live simply , sleep soundly . 

If beauty and fame bring ideal relationships , 

then celebrities should have the best marriages . 

Live simply . Walk humbly and love genuinely 💙
