咒你即係祝福你 想成功 好好記住呢7句話

爆趣的是，在當年的直播宣佈提名時，羅伯茨時年4歲的兒子傑克忽然在鏡頭前手舞足蹈，開心得忘形。小布殊和羅伯茨只能強作鎮定，「無眼睇」，還是媽媽簡妮衝上前將兒子攬在身後。

12年過去，當年的跳舞小子中學畢業了。學校 (Cardigan Mountain School) 請來首席大法官兼任父親的羅伯茨為畢業典禮致辭。

誰料，這位大法官卻給予了應是史上有始以來「最毒」的祝福。

大法官的7句毒雞湯

通常，畢業典禮的演講嘉賓都會祝你們好運並送上祝福。

但我不會這樣做，

我將告訴你為何。

Now the commencement speakers will typically also wish you good luck and extend good wishes to you. I will not do that, and I’ll tell you why.

1

在未來的很多年裡，

我希望你被不公正對待，

惟有這樣，

你才真正懂得公正的價值。

From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly, so that you will come to know the value of justice.

2

我希望你遭受背叛，

惟有這樣，你才領悟到忠誠的重要。

I hope that you will suffer betrayal because that will teach you the importance of loyalty.

3

抱歉，

我還會祝福你時常感到孤獨，

惟有這樣，

你才不會將朋友視為理所當然。

Sorry to say, but I hope you will be lonely from time to time so that you don’t take friends for granted.

4

我祝福你在人生旅途中時常運氣不佳，

惟有這樣，

你才意識到概率和機遇在人生中扮演的角色，

繼而領悟出成功並非天經地義的道理，

也從中體會別人的失敗不是他們應得的。

I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.

5

當你失敗時，

我希望你的對手會幸災樂禍，

惟有這樣，

才能讓你意識到有風度地競爭多麼的重要。

And when you lose, as you will from time to time, I hope every now and then, your opponent will gloat over your failure. It is a way for you to understand the importance of sportsmanship.

6

我祝福你會被人忽視，

惟有這樣，

你才會意識到傾聽別人說話的重要。

I hope you’ll be ignored so you know the importance of listening to others,

7

我祝福你遭受切膚之痛，

惟有這樣，

才能讓你對他人有同理心。

and I hope you will have just enough pain to learn compassion.

事實上，無論我祝福與否，

這些事情都必定會在你的生中命中發生。

Whether I wish these things or not, they’re going to happen.

And whether you benefit from them or not will depend upon your ability to see the message in your misfortunes.

肺腑之言

除非你已完美無暇，否則，在你思考並弄清楚自己是誰之前，「成為自己」的忠告都是枉然。

這意味著你不能一成不變，相反地，應該嘗試任何將自己變得更好的方法。

You should be yourself, but you should understand what that means. Unless you are perfect, it does not mean don’t make any changes.

In a certain sense you should not be yourself, you should try to become something better.

But you can’t be yourself if you don’t learn who you are, and you can’t learn who you are unless you think about it.
