生活加油站

在生活中發現意義，見證人類有無限潛能


 享受閱讀的樂趣，尤其是心情低落或陷於困境時 ，閱讀堅鏗有力的辭句，可以滌清思緒，也可以爲自己加油，今日閱讀，雖短短的一段話，意境深遠，面臨困境，要挑戰的是改變自己。

   我們不能忘記，即使面對絕境，面對無法改變的命運，也要在生活中發現意義，見證人類潛能可以處於最佳狀態，將悲劇轉化成勝利，打破困境終至於成就。當我們不能改變這種狀況時，就像是遇到無法治癒的癌症，我們要挑戰的是改變自己。〈Ryan, Bohlin, 1999, P3〉

We must never forget that we may also find meaning in life even when confronted with a hopeless situation , when facing a fate that cannot be changed. For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to  transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one's predicament into a human achievement. When we are no longer able to change a situation - just think of an incurable disease such as inoperable cancer- we are challenged to change ourselves.
