Why Me?
 
 
 
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 -- 50,000,000 children start 
playing tennis, 5,000,000 learn to play tennis, 500,000 learn professional 
tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 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 u Sweet, Trials keep u Strong, Sorrow keeps u Human, Failure 
Keeps u Humble, Success keeps u Glowing, But only God Keeps u Going.
