ONE PARAGRAPH EXPLAINS LIFE
Legendary Wimbledon player Arthur Ashe was infected with blood he got during a heart surgery in 1983.
Letters poured in from all over the world, as he was dying of AIDS.
One letter asked, 'Why has GOD chosen 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 semi
Final, 2 to the finals,
'When I was holding the Wimbledon Cup I never asked GOD 'Why me?’
And today in pain I should not be asking GOD 'Why me?'.....
He was a true champion, and a really wise one.
