I don’t know whether I believe in a future life。 I believe that all that you go through here must have some value; therefore there must be some reason。 And there must be some “going on”。 How exactly that happens I’ve never been able to decide。 There is a future—that I’m sure of。 But how; that I don’t know。 And I came to feel that it didn’t really matter very much because whatever the future held you’d have to face it when you came to it; just as whatever life holds you have to face it in exactly the same way。 And the important thing was that you never let down doing the best that you were able to do—it might be poor because you might not have very much within you to give; or to help other people with; or to live your life with。 But as long as you did the very best that you were able to do; then that was what you were put here to do and that was what you were acplishing by being here。

And so I have tried to follow that out—and not to worry about the future or what was going to happen。 I think I am pretty much of a fatalist。 You have to accept whatever es and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give。

如果

拉迪亞德?吉卜林

如果所有人都毫無緣由地指責你,你仍能保持清醒的頭腦;如果所有人都質疑你,你仍能相信自己,甚至對於他們的質疑寬容以待;如果你能等待,樂此不疲;或者,遭人欺騙,但並不因此去欺騙別人;或者,遭人憎恨,卻不因此怨天尤人,既不過度樂觀,也不過度自大。

如果你有夢想,卻不讓夢想左右你的思想;如果你有思想,卻不讓思想替代你的行動;如果你能同等地對待勝利與困苦;如果你能容忍你所講的事實被壞人扭曲並欺騙愚人,或是看到自己付出一生心血的物品損壞後,依然能彎下腰去,用磨破的工具改造它們。

如果你能將自己所有的勝利孤注一擲,即使是失去全部,也可以毫無怨言,並能從頭開始;如果你在他人離世後,還能強制自己鼓起勇氣、集中精力堅持工作,並且,當你一無所有時,還能跟隨意志說:“堅持!”

如果你謙恭地與平凡之人交談,或是與君王散步時也不表現出恭維之態;如果敵人和摯友都不能傷害你;如果所有人都有用於你,卻又不太重要;如果你能用60秒的跑步時間來彌補不可原諒的一分鐘,你就擁有了整個世界和世間的一切,並且——更重要的是——我的孩子,你將會成為一個真正的男子漢!

■ 心靈小語

如果我們都以一顆最純潔的心屹立於世間,堅定信念,正直做人,就能勇敢地面對自己的挫敗,正視自己獲得的成功。
