Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 ONE PARAGRAPH THAT EXPLAINS LIFE! 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 , 50 reached the grand slam Wimbledon, 4 to the semifinals, 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?" **************************************************** Isn't this very true in our lives .. we should realise that all that we get is because of our past karma or present one ... Only Baghawan knows our future and he will guide us to it till the end...All we need to do is to pray swami to give us the strength and his Grace to face the present life.... I personally felt the above explanation from Arthur Ashe was excellent and wanted to share it with this great group !
