Refuse To Sink !


Acceptance is the most macho-est thing in this spherical habitat of mine.
Acceptance with a smile is the most macho-est thing in this spherical habitat of mine.
I’m sorry for not blogging for almost a month though I wanted to maintain at least a weekly blog! The past month has been pretty amusing and sort of saddening because something didn’t work out the way I wanted. But then I came across this and so I’m a ninja again; D
Here is how Arthur Ashe (Wimbledon Tennis Player) erupted the lost ninja-ism in me again:
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 replied : “ The world over – 5 billion children start playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis, 0.5 million learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the Grand Slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semifinal, 2 to the finals. When I was holding the Cup as a winner I never asked God “Why me?”
And today in pain I should not be asking God “Why me?”

After reading this all I wanted to keep on saying myself was: Trials keep us strong, Sorrow keeps us human, Failure keeps us humble, Success keeps us glowing, but only God keeps us going!
Our journey has molded us for the greater good. It was exactly what it needed to be. Don’t think we’ve lost time. It took each and every situation we have encountered to bring us to the now. And Now is right on time. :)
