One Paragraph that explains life

I received a beautiful mail.Its about Arthur Ashe,tennis player . Below is that paragraph:

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 -- 5 crore children start playing tennis, 50 lakh learn to play tennis, 5 lakh 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 a cup I never asked GOD "Why me?". And today in pain I should not be asking GOD "Why me?

       

What a beautiful words.It really defines how we should handle our suffering and our happiness.
Arthur Ashe  was the greatest  of all Afro-American tennis player ever lived.In fact the above paragraph was taken from wikipedia.
