THINK AGAIN (life)



Why me?
Sometimes when tragedy strikes at home, we all ask ourselves- Why me? Here is an excellent inspirational message from Arthur Ashe, the celebrated Wimbledon Tennis player.

Arthur Ashe was dying of cancer. From world over, he received letters from his friends and admirers. One of the letters conveyed: "Why does God have to select you for such a fatal disease?" To this query Arthur Ashe replied: "The world over - 5 billion children start playing tennis professional tennis, 500,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals. When I was holding the cup as winner I never asked God "Why me?" And today in pain I should not be asking God "Why me?"
Isn't it strange?
Is not it strange how Rs 20 seems like such a big amount when you donate it but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Is not it strange how 2 hours seem so long when you are at a place of worship and how short they seem when you are watching a good movie?

Is not it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of a book on religion but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel?
