Conversation between a pencil & an eraser

Pencil: I'm sorry.

Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry bcos you get hurt b'cos of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller & smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true but I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though 1 day, I know I'll be gone & you'll replace me with a new 1, I'm actually happy with my job. So pl. Stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.:)

I found this conversation between pencil&eraser very inspirational. Parents are like eraser whereas their children are pencil.They are always there for their children , cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way, they get hurt & become smaller (older&eventually pass on).

Though their children will eventually find someone new(spouse)but parents are still happy with what they do for their children &
will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying or sad.

Why Me????

ONE PARAGRAPH THAT EXPLAINS LIFE!
Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon Champion was dying of AIDS which he got from 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 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?'
