One Paragraph that explains "Why Me"!!!

ONE PARAGRAPH THAT EXPLAINS LIFE!

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, 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 and Success keeps you glowing,
But only Faith & Attitude Keeps you going...”

Hope.....

Hope is like a Flowing river of which the ceaseless desires constitute the waters;
it rages with the waves of keen longings and the attachments for various objects are its animals of prey; scheming thoughts of greed are the aquatic birds that abound on it,
and it destroys in its course the big trees of patience and fortitude;

it is rendered impassable by the whirlpools of ignorance and of profound depth of bed as it is,

its banks of anxious deliberation are precipitous indeed. Such a river the great yogis of pure mind pass across to enjoy supreme felicity

Verse 10 - Vairagya shatakam
