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.
From world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: "Why does God have to select you for such a bad disease"?
To this Arthur Ashe replied: “The world over -- 50 million children start playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis,500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, and 5000 reach the grand slam,50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals.
When I was holding a cup I never asked God 'Why me?’And today in pain I should not be asking God 'Why me?'
Happiness keeps you Sweet,Trials keep you Strong,Sorrow keeps you Human,Failure keeps you humble andSuccess keeps you glowing,but only Faith & Attitude Keeps you going..........
