Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of Cancer. 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 -- 5 crore children start playing tennis, 50 lakh learn to play tennis, 5 lakh 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".

aaaaahhhhh.........great, really a legend who never born again and again.

Beena, this is also based upon your previous topic “Love your irritations”:Kahil Gibran,wrote'I have Learned silence from the talkative,tolerance from the intolerant,and kindness from the unkind……and now this is also the one of them.
How much greater we achieve, may we have to pay for it and we have to be ready and kind hearted.
 
Terrifically inspiring indeed, but needs lot of practice to put into practise ...
