我相信通过努力,可以实现社会公正和全民自由。愤世嫉俗者可能要嘲笑这种想法太幼稚,他们声称,努力追求机会均等、公平公正、自由自在,只会创造一个绝望的荒原。但是,他们错了,自由是我们的命运,公正是我们的向导,我们将所向无敌。我相信,保护地球的环境,可以抵制前所未有的冲击。愤世嫉俗者可能嘲笑道:一片古树林,一阵清风,或者一条山涧,都毫无价值。但是,他们错了,人类无法独立生存,我们是世界的一部分。我相信你,相信这里的每个人,也相信这个群体。愤世嫉俗者说:你们的内心受贪欲驱使,最终,你们只会在乎自己,而毫不顾及他物。但是,他们错了,你们彼此关心,珍爱自由,崇尚公正,追求真理。
最终,一个重要的抉择摆在我们面前:愤世嫉俗还是坚定信念。它们都能扎根在我们的心灵深处,像能自我实现的预言一样,它们会塑造我们的生活。我相信,我们必须相互敞开心扉,在无限可能的基础上,创造一切可能。这是一个自信民族的任务,也是贯串我们整个历史,至今仍深植在我们内心深处的品格。
我相信我们的未来!
Different Strokes of Our Duties 关于责任的几笔Life teaches us to live. To live,you have to exist. To exist,you should have a passport to this living world. Thanks to your parents,who brought you into this world.
Parents have taken care of us and satisfied all our needs. They helped whenever we were hungry,afraid or ill. They were always there by you, whenever you needed them. You almost assumed that they will always be there for you and never thought of how your life would be without them. But as you grow up,age also catches up with your parents and they need your help and support.
Man is a child first,after which he attains his youth. After youth he again goes through the second phase of childhood,also called as old age. This is the phase where everyone needs a comfort of a sense of belonging and being taken care of. Wouldn‘t we all expect the same sense of security when we grow old? Even our parents are expecting us to be their caretaker,as they grow old. But they never make that obvious to us. Theydo their further duty by taking care of their grandchildren,paying E-bills, giving the clothes for laundry etc.
Isn’t it unfair on our part that we aren‘t giving them what they need the most? It is our prime duty to take the very best care of them. It’s our pay back time. Let‘s give the same sense of emotional security,care and love to our parents in their old age.
Some of us mistreat our parents and consider them more of a liability than an asset. Some of us move away from them,though our conscience pricks us. We err in our duties for not being dutiful. This guilty feeling is further wrapped into a sense of regret,when we will be treated in the same way by our future generation. After all you only get what you deserve. Don’t you?
Let‘s keep in mind that to be a manager,husband or father,we first have to be a son.
人生中有很多我们应尽的责任,不要逃避,学会承担。种瓜得瓜,种豆得豆,你对别人负责,别人也会对你负责。

生活教会我们如何生存,生存必须以存在为前提。你需要凭借一张通行证来到这个生机勃勃的世界。要感谢你的父母,是他们引领你来到这里。
父母照顾我们,满足我们的一切要求。不管我们是饥饿、恐惧还是疾病,他们都会陪伴在我们身边,随时给予我们帮助。你总以为他们将永远陪在你左右,从未想过如果没有他们,你的生活会怎样。可是随着你渐渐长大,父母的年岁渐高,他们越来越需要你的帮助和支持。
人首先是个孩子,然后才是青年。青年时期后,又会经历童年的第二个阶段,也被称做老年。这个阶段的人都需要被抚慰和被关爱。在我们年老时,不也希望有同样的安全感吗?即使我们的父母在年老时很希望有我们照料,他们也不会明显地表露出来。他们会继续尽自己的责任去照看孙子们、支付网费、把衣服拿去洗等。
我们从未给予父母最需要的,这是否有失公平呢?是报答他们的时候了,我们应该把细心照料他们作为自己的首要责任。让年老的父母同样有安全感和关爱感吧!
有些人虐待父母,不是把父母当成财富而是债务。有些人搬离父母居住,宁愿受到良心的谴责。我们没能尽责,因此在职责上有所缺失。当下一代以同样的方式对待我们时,我们的负罪感会愈加强烈,且追悔莫及。毕竟种瓜得瓜,种豆得豆,不是吗?
让我们记住,无论做经理、丈夫还是父亲,首先我们要做个孝顺的儿子。
What Successful People Have in Common 成功人士的必备条件Is there a“success personality”- some winning combination of traits that leads almost inevitably to achievement? If so,exactly what is that secret success formula,and can anyone cultivate it?
At the Gallup Organization we recently focused in depth on success, probing the attitudes and traits of 1 500 prominent people selected at random from Who’s Who in America. The main criterion for inclusion in Who‘s Who is not wealth or social position,but current achievement ina given field. Our research pinpoints a number of traits that recur regularly among top achievers. Here are five of the most important:
Common sense. This is the most prevalent quality possessed by our respondents. Seventy-nine percent award themselves a top score in this category. And 61 percent say that common sense was very important in contributing to their success.
To most,common sense means the ability to render sound,practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this,one has to sweep asideextraneous ideas and get right to the core of what matters. A Texas oil and gas magnate puts it this way:“The key ability for success is simplifying. In conducting meetings and dealing with industry regulators,reducing a complex problem to the simplest terms is highly important.”
