一位大学教授,给自己刚考入大学的女儿,写了一封信。
这封信不仅打动了千万父母,甚至还惊动了教育部,《人民日报》也转发荐读。
甚至有网友建议:把这篇文章作为高中语文和大学语文的第一课。
这位父亲叫吴辉,是江西财经大学人文学院新闻传播系的副教授。女儿吴阳考入西南林业大学。
吴辉表示,他是2、3月份开始写这封家书的。当时女儿还在读高三,他慢慢积累、酝酿了几个月的时间,最后在高考前成文,高考结束后把信交到了女儿手上。

《给女儿的一封信》
吴辉
宝贝,光阴似箭,日月如梭。襁褓中咿呀学语,庭院里蹒跚学步,都早已是很久以前的事了。
不知不觉你已长大,转眼你就上大学了。按理说,18岁就是成年人,我本不该有什么担心。只是你自从出生以来,从来没有离开过家,我总担心你在外面照顾不好自己。
你说不希望在本地上大学,我理解,也支持。外面海阔天空,你可以任意飞翔。
你很讨厌说教,但在你外出求学之际,我仍要啰唆几句。对你未必有效,对我却是安慰。

关于道德
做一个有道德的人,这个说法并不新鲜,我主要是想说怎么做的问题。
道德首先是一种实践,善良不能仅存于内心。
记得有一次坐公交车,我主动给一位老人让座。当时你和君姐都说,没想到我会给人让座。我问你们,老师不就是这样教你们的?你们说是,只是觉得做的时候有点不好意思。我理解年轻人的这种心理,我第一次帮助别人时,也很在乎别人的眼光。
现在想来,根本不必。
一件好事,不存私利,有何担心,怕啥议论?生活中有很多小事,只要信手拈来,就是一种善行。
当你可以帮助别人时,不要吝啬。世界将因你的举手之劳,变得更加美好。爸爸受过别人的恩惠,我们要懂得反哺社会的道理。

关于专业
挑专业就是挑兴趣,不要用利益标准衡量。
专业的好坏是相对的、辩证的。今天的好专业不等于永远的好专业。不要用利益的标准来衡量专业好坏。挑专业就是挑兴趣,专业再热,学科再强,你不喜欢,没有意义。
兴趣的标准更稳定,利益的标准不长久。
做自己喜欢的事,看自己喜欢的书,是人生一大享受。挑你喜欢的,学你热爱的,工作应有更多快乐,生活会有更高品质。
任何专业,只要学得足够好,不愁得不到别人不曾得到的东西。好比旅行,只要走得足够远,就能看得见别人未曾看见的风景。
人类社会不断发展,专业分工更为精细,但专业分工不能分得井水不犯河水。各种专业都是解释世界的方式,广泛涉猎,你会更具智慧。

关于知识
知识使人生拥有更多可能。
“读书无用论”是存在的,没有读书也发横财的人也是有的。但个案不能说明问题,普遍现象才有说服力。稍懂常识的人就知道,即使用金钱衡量,知识作用也不可忽视。
只要做一个简单的统计,就会发现知识与收入的正相关关系。读书到底有没有用,关键是如何看待有用,不能只用“金钱”这一个标准。
知识使人生拥有更多可能。
知识决定一个人的气质、趣味、眼界、欣赏水平、价值观……这些都是影响生活质量的关键因素。这些都是知识熏陶的结果,而不是金钱交换的产物。
如果你大学毕业后,能认识到还有很多更有意义的生活方式,那这个大学就没有白上。

关于阅读
读经典,经典是时间选择的产物。
大学与高中最大的区别是,自由很多,挥霍自由的人也很多。希望你能利用这难得的自由,多读些书。现在很多年轻人不喜欢阅读,他们可以花很多时间逛街、淘宝、打游戏、网聊……就是不肯花时间安安静静地阅读。
我曾给学生写过一条读书寄语:“趁年轻,认认真真跟好书来一次热恋。”我强调趁年轻,走上社会你就知道,抽出时间来读书是多么不易。
我还强调读好书,有些书确实害人,思想贫乏,内容平庸。
读书像交友,要仔细甄别,非善勿近。一个简单的方法是读经典,经典是时间选择的产物,读者挑剔的结果。
一本书之所以成为经典,肯定有它的道理。只要是经典,只要你想读,都可以去读。

关于竞争
不靠人情关系,就靠本事竞争。
如今这个年代,需用实力说话。规则应该会越来越公平,竞争肯定会越来越残酷。爸爸是个倔强的人,办事不喜欢求人,也很少求过别人。
当初我从小学调到初中,是因为校长觉得我有教初中的水平。后来,县城的学校招聘6名老师,我考了第3名,可没有被录取,没有关系,我不求别人。第二年我就考上了研究生,离开了那个地方。
不靠人情关系,就靠本事竞争。虽然这样比较辛苦,但于外能赢得别人尊重,于内能得到心里安稳,多好!
你要知道,一个人如果不想过低三下四的生活,就必须有能让自己抬头挺胸的资本。
你要抓住机会,提高自己。直面风雨人生,迎接时代挑战。

关于漂亮
内外兼修很重要,不要追求花瓶式的漂亮。
爱美之心,人皆有之,女孩子就更是如此吧。
人要懂得修饰自己,遗憾的是,这方面我没有什么经验可以传授给你。适当买些新衣服,戴首饰点缀,用化妆增色,都是可以的。
当然,漂亮、有魅力不仅仅是指外表。言谈举止,会传递一个人的风度;待人接物,可泄露一个人的修养。
内外兼修很重要,我可不希望你追求花瓶式的漂亮。再说,我们家里还没有一个人有当花瓶的资本。
知识是最好的化妆品,良好的素养会让人更有魅力,这是一种岁月都无法剥夺的吸引力。

关于恋爱
真爱深沉而非浅薄,真心无私而不贪婪。
爱情很美好,爸爸希望你能找到意中人。孩子,只要你幸福,我的一生就圆满了。恋爱很严肃,对待须认真。
感情不是拿来玩的,恩爱不是用来秀的。真爱深沉而非浅薄,真心无私而不贪婪。
你的爱人不是你的私有品。你可以想他,但不要轻易打扰他,你可以爱他,但不要牢牢限制他。
恋爱会让人做出各种傻事而不自知,你是女孩子,要懂得洁身自好,什么事可以做,什么事不可以做,在去约会的路上就要想清楚。
爱的决定应该基于平时细致的考察,而不是一时的冲动。希望你将来的男朋友正直、有涵养。如果你们是认真的,我会祝福你们。

关于交友
遇事能让则让,有难可帮就帮。
大学是读书之所,也是交友之地。人的一生一定要有几个交情过命的朋友。幸福人生不是取决于金钱财富,而是取决于社会关系。
朋友是广泛的社会关系中的一种。
快乐有人分享,你会更快乐;悲伤有人分担,你不会太悲伤。各地都有人值得你牵挂,到处都有牵挂你的人,你会觉得世界充满阳光,心里如沐春风。
世界上没有无缘无故的爱,也没有无缘无故的恨。希望别人对自己好一点,自己首先就要对别人好一点。
大学宿舍,四人一寝,大家远道而来,是前世定下的相遇。遇事能让则让,有难可帮就帮。与人玫瑰,手有余香。

关于时间
不要总觉得年轻,干什么事都还早。
时间最公平,每个人的一天都是24小时。时光最易得,但也最不为人所珍惜。生活中常常听人说,要把时间补回来。
时间是补不回来的,浪费了就是浪费了。不要总觉得自己还年轻,干什么事都觉得还早。
有道是“记得少年骑木马,转眼已是白头人”。
大学生的时间往往会消耗在两个方面,一是社团活动,二是上网。适当参加社团活动,广交朋友,增长见识,确是好事。但太多的课外活动,会使时间以各种光明正大的名义被浪费。
网络很便利,网络也很误事。电脑、手机让你时刻与外界保持联系,也让你时刻受到外界干扰。不妨在适当的时候,把网络关闭,让时间花在更有意义的事情上。

宝贝,说一千道一万,都不如你亲自去实践。爸爸不能教会你所有,也不能陪伴你一生。
时光流逝,生命不会常在;总有一天,别离会成永远。希望这些建议能有益于你。
无论何时何地,都要快乐幸福。你若安好,我便幸福。

写给刚考入大学女儿的一封信
(中英文对照)

Dear Daughter:
亲爱的女儿:
As we drove off from Columbia, I wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on my mind.
当我们开车驶出哥伦比亚大学的时候,我想写一封信给你,告诉你盘旋在我脑中的想法。
First, I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia is a real testament of what a great well-rounded student you are. Your academic, artistic, and social skills have truly blossomed in the last few years. Whether it is getting the highest grade in Calculus, completing your elegant fashion design, successfully selling your painted running shoes, or becoming one of the top orators in Model United Nations, you have become a talented and accomplished young woman. You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
首先,我想告诉你我们为你感到特别骄傲。进入哥伦比亚大学证明你是一个全面发展的优秀学生,你的学业、艺术和社交技能最近都有卓越的表现,无论是你在微积分上得了最高分,完成自己典雅的时尚的设计,成功卖出绘制的跑鞋,还是在“模拟联合国”演说中成为表现最突出的人之一,你毫无疑问已经是一个多才多艺的女孩。你的父母为你感到骄傲,你也应该像我们一样为自己感到自豪。
I will always remember the first moment I held you in my arms. I felt a tingling sensation that directly touched my heart. It was an intoxicating feeling I will always have. It must be that "father-daughter connection" which will bind us for life. I will always remember singing you lullaby while I rocked you to sleep. When I put you down, it was always with both relief (she finally fell asleep!) and regret (wishing I could hold you longer). And I will always remember taking you to the playground, and watching you having so much fun. You were so cute and adorable, and that is why everybody loved you so.
我会永远记得第一次将你抱在臂弯的那一刻,一种新鲜激动的感觉瞬间触动了我的心,那是一种永远让我陶醉的感觉,就是那种将我们的一生都联结在一起的“父女情结”。我也常常想起我唱着催眠曲轻摇你入睡,当我把你放下的时候,常常觉得既解脱又惋惜,一方面我想,她终于睡着了!另一方面,我又多么希望自己可以多抱你一会儿。我还记得带你到运动场,看着你玩得那么开心,你是那样可爱,所有人都非常爱你。
You have been a great kid ever since you were born, always quiet, empathetic, attentive, and well-mannered. You were three when we built our house. I remember you quietly followed us every weekend for more than ten hours a day to get building supplies. You put up with that boring period without a fuss, happily ate hamburgers every meal in the car, sang with Barney until you fell asleep. When you went to Sunday Chinese school, you studied hard even though it was no fun for you. I cannot believe how lucky we are as parents to have a daughter like you.
你不但长得可爱,而且是个特别乖巧的孩子。你从不吵闹、为人着想,既听话又有礼貌。当你三岁我们建房子的时候,每个周末十多个小时你都静静地跟着我们去运建筑材料,三餐在车上吃着汉堡,唱着儿歌,唱累了就睡觉,一点都不娇气不抱怨。你去上周日的中文学习班时,尽管一点也不觉得有趣,却依然很努力。我们做父母的能有像你这样的女儿真的感到非常幸运。
You have been an excellent elder sister. Even though you two had your share of fights, the last few years you have become best friends. Your sister loves you so much, and she loves to make you laugh. She looks up to you, and sees you as her role model. As you saw when we departed, she misses you so much. And I know that you miss her just as much. There is nothing like family, and other than your parents, your sister is the one person who you can trust and confide in. She will be the one to take care of you, and the one you must take care of. There is nothing we wish more than that your sisterhood will continue to bond as you grow older, and that you will take care of each other throughout your lives. For the next four years, do have a short video chat with her every few days, and do email her when you have a chance.
你也是个很好的姐姐。虽然你们姐妹以前也会打架,但是长大后,你们真的成为了好朋友。妹妹很爱你,很喜欢逗你笑,她把你当成她的榜样看待。我们开车离开哥大后,她非常想你,我知道你也很想她。世界上最宝贵的就是家人。和父母一样,妹妹就是你最可以信任的人。随着年龄的增长,你们姐妹之间的情谊不变,你们互相照应,彼此关心,这就是我最希望见到的事情了。在你的大学四年,有空时你一定要常常跟妹妹视频聊聊天,写写电子邮件。
College will be the most important years in your life. It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about. You often question "what good is this course". I encourage you to be inquisitive, but I also want to tell you: "Education is what you have left after all that is taught is forgotten." What I mean by that is the materials taught isn't as important as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject, and the ability to analyze a new problem. That is really what learning in college is about – this will be the period where you go from teacher-taught to master-inspired, after which you must become self-learner. So do take each subject seriously, and even if what you learn isn't critical for your life, the skills of learning will be something you cherish forever.
大学将是你人生最重要的时光,在大学里你会发现学习的真谛。你以前经常会问到 “这个课程有什么用”,这是个好问题,但是我希望你理解:“教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所剩下的东西。”我的意思是,最重要的不是你学到的具体的知识,而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能力。这才是大学学习的真正意义——这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段,之后你会变成一个很好的自学者。所以,即便你所学的不是生活里所急需的,也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课,就算学习的技能你会忘记,学习的能力是你将受用终身的。
Do not fall into the trap of dogma. There is no single simple answer to any question. Remember during your high school debate class, I always asked you to take on the side that you don't believe in? I did that for a reason -- things rarely "black and white", and there are always many ways to look at a problem. You will become a better problem solver if you recognized that. This is called "critical thinking", and it is the most important thinking skill you need for your life. This also means you need to become tolerant and supportive of others. I will always remember when I went to my Ph.D. advisor and proposed a new thesis topic. He said "I don't agree with you, but I'll support you." After the years, I have learned this isn't just flexibility, it is encouragement of critical thinking, and an empowering style of leadership, and it has become a part of me. I hope it will become a part of you too.
不要被教条所束缚,任何问题都没有一个唯一的简单的答案。还记得当我帮助你高中的辩论课程时,我总是让你站在你不认可的那一方来辩论吗?我这么做的理由就是希望你能够理解:看待一个问题不应该非黑即白,而是有很多方法和角度。当你意识到这点的时候,你就会成为一个很好的解决问题者。这就是“批判的思维”——你的一生都会需要的最重要的思考方式,这也意味着你还需要包容和支持不同于你的其他观点。我永远记得我去找我的博士导师提出了一个新论题,他告诉我:“我不同意你,但我支持你。”多年后,我认识到这不仅仅是包容,而是一种批判式思考,更是令人折服的领导风格,现在这也变成了我的一部分。我希望这也能成为你的一部分。
Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy. Don't be trapped in what others think or say. Steve Jobs says when you are in college, your passion will create many dots, and later in your life you will connect them. In his great speech given at Stanford commencement, he gave the great example where he took calligraphy, and a decade later, it became the basis of the beautiful Macintosh fonts, which later ignited desktop publishing, and brought wonderful tools like Microsoft Word to our lives. His expedition into calligraphy was a dot, and the Macintosh became the connecting line. So don't worry too much about what job you will have, and don't be too utilitarian, and if you like Japanese or Korean, go for it, even if your dad thinks "it's not useful" : ) Enjoy picking your dots, and be assured one day you will find your calling, and connect a beautiful curve through the dots.
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣,选你感兴趣的课程,不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想。史蒂夫•乔布斯曾经说过,在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点,在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联起来。在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中,他举了一个很好的例子:他在大学里修了看似毫无用处的书法,而十年后,这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础,而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库,才带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件(例如微软Office)。他对书法的探索就是一个点,而苹果Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线。所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作,也不要太急功近利。假如你喜欢日语或韩语,就去学吧,即使你爸爸曾认为那没什么用:)尽兴地选择你的点吧,要有信念有一天机缘来临时,你会找到自己的人生使命,画出一条美丽的曲线。
Do your best in classes, but don't let pressure get to you. Your mother and I have no expectations for your grades. If you graduate and learn something in your four years, we would feel happy. Your Columbia degree will take you far, even if you don't graduate with honors. So please don't give yourself pressure. During your last few months in high school, you were so happy because there was little pressure and college applications are finished. But in the past few weeks, we saw you are beginning to worry (did you know you bite your nails when you are nervous?). Please don't be worried. The only thing that matters is that you learned. The only metric you should use is that you tried. Grades are just silly letters that give the vain people something to brag, and the lazy people something to fear. You are too good to be either.
在功课上要尽力,但不要给自己太多压力。你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求,只要你能顺利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西,我们就会很高兴了。即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩,你的哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远。所以别给自己压力。在你高中生活的最后几个月,因为压力比较小,大学申请也结束了,你过得很开心,但是在最近的几个星期,你好像开始紧张起来。(你注意到你紧张时会咬指甲吗?)千万别担心,最重要的是你在学习,你需要的唯一衡量是你的努力程度。成绩只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已,而你既不虚荣也不慵懒。
Most importantly, make friends and be happy. College friends are often the best in life, because during college you are closer to them physically than to your family. Also, going through independence and adulthood is a natural bonding experience. Pick a few friends and become really close to them – pick the ones who are genuine and sincere to you. Don't worry about their hobbies, grades, looks, or even personalities. You have developed some real friendships in high school in your last two years, so trust your instinct, and make new friends. You are a genuine and sincere person – anyone would enjoy being your friend, so be confident, outgoing, and pro-active. If you think you like someone, tell her. You have very little to lose. Give people the benefit of the doubt; don't stereotype and be forgiving. People are not perfect, so as long as they are genuine and sincere, trust them and be good to them. They will give back. This is my secret of success – that I am genuine with people and trust them (unless they do something to lose my trust). Some people tell me that occasionally I would be taken advantage of. They are right, but I can tell you that that loss is nothing compared to what I gained. In my last 18 years leading people, I have realized that only one thing matters – to gain the trust and respect of others, and to do so, you need to trust and respect others first. Whether it is for management, work, or friendship, this is something you should ponder.
最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友,快乐生活。大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友,因为在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往。另外,在一块儿成长,一起独立,很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在一起,成为密友。你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友,跟他们亲近,别在乎他们的爱好、成绩、外表甚至性格。你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友,所以尽可以相信自己的直觉,再交一些新朋友吧。你是一个真诚的人,任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的,所以要自信、外向、主动一点,如果你喜欢某人,就告诉她,就算她拒绝了,你也没有损失什么。以最大的善意去对人,不要有成见,要宽容。人无完人,只要他们很真诚,就信任他们,对他们友善。他们将给你相同的回报,这是我成功的秘密——我以诚待人,信任他人(除非他们做了失信于我的事)。有人告诉这样有时我会被占便宜,他们是对的,但是我可以告诉你:以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的。在我做管理的18年里,我学到一件很重要的事——要想得到他人的信任和尊重,只有先去信任和尊重他人。无论是管理、工作、交友,这点都值得你参考。
Do keep your high school friends, and stay connected to them, but do not use them as substitutes for college friendship, and do not spend too much time with them, because that would eat into your time to make new friends.
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系,但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊,也不要把全部的时间都花在老朋友身上,因为那样你就会失去交新朋友的机会了。
Start planning for your summers early – what would you like to do? Where would you like to live? What would you like to learn? What have you learned in college that might change your mind? I think your plan of studying fashion is good, and you should decide where you want to be, and get into the right courses. We of course hope you come back to Beijing, but you should go where you think is best for you.
你还要早点开始规划你的暑假——你想做什么?你想呆在哪儿?你想学点什么?你在大学里学习是否会让你有新的打算?我觉得你学习艺术设计的计划很不错,你应该想好你该去哪儿学习相应的课程。我们当然希望你回到北京,但是最终的决定是你的。
Whether it is summer-planning, or coursework planning, or picking a major, or managing your time, you should take control of your life. In the past, I have helped you quite a bit, whether it is in college application, designing your extracurricular activities, or picking the initial coursework. I will always be there for you, but the time has come for you to be in the driver's seat – this is your life, and you need to be in control. I will always remember the exhilarating feeling in my life – that I got to decide to skip kindergarten, that I got to decide to change to computer science major, that I got to decide to leave academia for Apple, that I got to decide to go to China, that I got to decide to go to Google, and most recently, that I got to decide to start my own business. Being able to decide means you get to live the life that you want to. Life is too short to live the life others do or others want you. Being in control feels great. Try it, and you'll love it!
不管是暑假计划,功课规划,抑或是选专业,管理时间,你都应该负责你的人生。过去不管是申请学校、设计课外活动或者选择最初的课程,我都从旁帮助了你不少。以后,我仍然会一直站你身旁,但是现在是你自己掌舵的时候了。我常常记起我生命中那些令人振奋的时刻——在幼儿园决定跳级,决定转到计算机科学专业,决定离开学术界选择Apple,决定回中国,决定选择Google,乃至最近选择创办我的新公司。有能力进行选择意味着你会过上自己想要的生活。生命太短暂了,你不能过别人想要你过的生活。掌控自己的生命是很棒的感觉,试试吧,你会爱上它的!
I told your mom I'm writing this letter, and asked what she wanted me to say. She thought and said: "just ask her to take care of herself." Simple but deeply caring – that is how your mother is, and that is why you love her so much. In this simple sentence is her hope that you will become independent in the way you take care of yourself – that you will remember to take your medicine, that you will get enough sleep, that you will have a balanced diet, that you will get some exercise, and that you will go see a doctor whenever you don't feel good. An ancient Chinese proverb says that the most important thing to be nice to your parents is to take care of yourself. This is because your parents love you so much, and that if you are well, they will have comfort. You will understand this one day when you become a mother. But in the meantime, please listen to your mother and take care of yourself.
我告诉你妈妈我在写这封信,问她有什么想对你说的,她想了想,说“让她好好照顾自己”,很简单却饱含着真切的关心——这一向是你深爱的妈妈的特点。这短短的一句话,是她想提醒你很多事情,比如要记得自己按时吃药,好好睡觉,保持健康的饮食,适量运动,不舒服的时候要去看医生等等。中国有句古语,说“身体发肤,受之父母,不敢毁伤,孝之始也”。这句话的意思用比较新的方法诠释就是说:父母最爱的就是你,所以照顾好自己就是孝顺最好的方法。当你成为母亲的那天,你就会理解这些。在那天之前,听妈妈的,你一定要好好照顾自己。
College is the four years where you have:
•the greatest amount of free time
大学是你自由时间最多的四年。
•the first chance to be independent
大学是你第一次学会独立的四年。
•the most flexibility to change
大学是可塑性最强的四年。
•the lowest risk for making mistakes
大学是犯错代价最低的四年。
So please treasure your college years – make the best of your free time, become an independent thinker in control of your destiny, evolve yourself into a bi-cultural talent, be bold to experiment, learn and grow through your successes and challenges.
所以,珍惜你的大学时光吧,好好利用你的空闲时间,成为掌握自己命运的独立思考者,发展自己的多元化才能,大胆地去尝试,通过不断的成功和挑战来学习和成长,成为融汇中西的人才。
When I faced the greatest challenge and opportunity in my life in 2005, you gave me a big hug and said "bonne chance", which means "good luck" and "good courage". Now I do the same for you. Bonne chance, my angel and princess. May Columbia become the happiest four years in your life, and may you blossom into just what you dream to be.
当我在2005年面对人生最大的挑战时,你给了我大大的拥抱,还跟我说了一句法语“bonne chance”。这句话代表“祝你勇敢,祝你好运!”现在,我也想跟你说同样的话,bonne chance,我的天使和公主,希望哥伦比亚成为你一生中最快乐的四年,希望你成为你梦想成为的人!
Love,
爱你的,
Dad (& Mom)
爸爸(和妈妈)

东方家长-龙应台说
孩子,我要求你读书用功,不是因为我要你跟别人比成绩,而是,我希望你将来会拥有选择的权利,选择有意义、有时间的工作,而不是被迫谋生。当你的工作在你心中有意义,你就有成就感。当你的工作给你时间,不剥夺你的生活,你就有尊严。成就感和尊严,给你快乐。
西方家长-奥巴马(美国前总统)说
你们中的每一个人都会有自己擅长的东西,每一个人都是有用之才,而发现自己才能是什么就是你们要对自己担起的责任,教育给你们提供了发现自己才能的机会,没有哪一个人一生出来就擅长做什么事情,只有努力才能培养出技能,任何人都不是第一次接触体育运动的时候就成为校队的代表,任何人都不是第一次唱一首歌时就找准美。
