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 Grandslam,
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?”
In life, things work out for our own good, but sometimes they do not. When things are bad we tend to ignore all the good things God has done for us and we focus on the one unfortunate even that we facing. Lets always count our blessings, the situation could have been worse for us, but God has been with us from the day of birth!
Enjoy your day and stay blessed. We love you all.
Very thoughtful and inspiring.
