Arthur Ashe, the legendry 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 diseases?"
To this Arthur Ashe replied:
"The World over – 50 million children started playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis, 500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5,000 reach the ground slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi finals, 2 to the finals, When I was holding the 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 and Success keeps you glowing,
But only faith & attitude keeps you going……….
