Christiano Ronaldo's lesson!
When he received one of his
awards recently, Ronaldo dedicated it to a certain Alberto Fantrau. Then said: "Yes
I am a great footballer and all my success is thanks to my friend Alberto"
People looked at each other and
said, "Who is this Mr. Fantrau?"
Then Ronaldo went on: "We
played together in a youth team. When Sporting of Lisbon recruiters came to
observe us, they told us that the striker who scored the most goals will be
recruited into the sports academy.
That day we won 3-0. I scored the
first goal and then Albert scored the 2nd with the head. And then the 3rd goal
was the one that impressed everyone. Alberto started from the wing, then found
himself face to face with the keeper, dribbled the goalkeeper and all he had to
do was push the ball into the empty goal. In the meantime I was running to his
side. And instead of shooting into the empty goal, Alberto decided to pass the
ball to me and I scored. This is how I find myself at the Sporting Lisbon
Academy. After the game I went to him, and asked him "why did you do
that?" And he replied, "Because I know that you are better than
I"
Curious to know more, the
journalists began to investigate and were able to meet this Alberto Fantrau to
ask him if the story told by Ronaldo is true, and he confirmed it, adding that
his career as a footballer ended after this match as it was the only
opportunity to become professional and since that time he has remained
unemployed.
However, journalists, observing
his luxurious house and his Mercedes parked in the garage asked Alberto
"but being unemployed how could you have such a house and car and living
so luxuriously? You seem rather comfortable physically " Alberto's answer:
"All that? .. is Ronaldo
Moral of this story:
Let us ask ourselves the
following question: How many of us have ever done something like Ronaldo and
Alberto? On the contrary, many of us show the opposite of this story showing
selfishness and ingratitude to their mates.
Friends! Let's help each other so
that we are proud of the success of our brothers/sisters/friends/relatives.
And when we help a person
succeed, the latter must never forget those who contributed to this success in
his life.
And above all, we should never
forget that God is watching and judging us.
