Why Me ?- A Beautiful Message

(1/1)

Badshah Mamun:
Why Me ?
A Beautiful Message by Arthur Ashe, The legendary Wimbledon Player who was dying of AIDS , which he got due to Infected Blood he received during a Heart Surgery in 1983 !

during his illness , 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 , while  a pilot on the plane sees the farmhouse and 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 , be happy ! Walk humbly and love genuinely ! 

WHY ME ?

A Beautiful Message not just to read and forward but to apply practically in our personal life .
Ash Arthur, a non Muslim is conveying basically an Islamic message of  life of Zeenatu Dunya—his understanding and insight of worldly life is piercing.

Collected.
