" Why Me ? " --  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 .
