BEAUTIFUL

I speak my mind, do you?

Simply Beautiful

Came across this in one of the communities. It so meaningful, I couldn'tresist the temptation of posting it on my blog.

Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he got due to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983. 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 50 Million children start playing tennis
5 Million learn to play tennis
500,000 learn professional tennis
50,000 come to the circuit
5000 reach the grand slam
50 reach Wimbledon
4 to the semi finals
2 to the finals
When I was holding the cup I never asked God “Why me?”
And today in pain I should not be asking God “Why me?”

Happiness keeps us Sweet
Trials keep us Strong
Sorrow keeps us Human
Failure keeps us Humble
Success keeps us Glowing
But only God keeps us going!

Fear..................

Fear
I fail to walk coz I fear halt
I fail to be flawless coz I fear fault
I fail to laugh coz I fear tears
I fail to refute coz I fear rebuke
I fail to sing coz I fear silence
I fail to act coz I fear procrastination
I fail to love coz I fear loss
I fail to dance coz I fear fall
I fail to run coz I fear pace
I fail to live coz I fear death
I fail to be myself coz I fear castigation
