英语演讲稿:自信范文 篇3
Founder of Success Napoleon Hill said: "The self-confidence, manage human use and the only channel universe, Infinite Intelligence is all the 'miracle' of the foundation of all scientific laws can not be the birthplace of the mystery of miracles . "he also said that such a thought-provoking words:" If we analyze the personality of those outstanding figures, you will see they have a common characteristic: they start work before, always fully believe in themselves the ability to remove all difficulties and obstacles, until victory! "
Indeed, in large part to promote confidence in a person's success, many people start from the history we are all evident. Confident people from distress to rescue, you can see the successful people in the dark light, can give people the power struggle. Perhaps you could say: "With confidence, you have half the success."
Work the same two people, self-confidence of people at work in a more relaxed when the Association of the way through: Dang good done, we will consider it for our own strength, in the event Shizaiwufa completed The task, then that might be really difficult task in itself. The lack of self-confidence of people will bring success to good luck, the ability to not fail as their own home. However, as this little psychological difference, although the two spent time and energy are similar, but often more self-confident side of the gain is much greater.
How many scientists at home and abroad, especially inventors, which is not tackled on his own confidence in what the project? Will fail again and again again and again aroused their fighting spirit - they think: the more failures, the more successful near distance. But confidence is not an innocent person will be attached to the body, first of all who have genuine talent, then can there be real self-confidence, and use it as an extremely useful power. Empty full of confidence, it would only say it is presumptuous Bale. This so-called "confidence", not only failed to promote human progress, but unfriendly.
King of the hill Network commentator said: "There is no real thing, only the confidence, the future is only one - dead, and done for." This sentence sounds excessive, but in fact the only self-confidence if it is indeed a very dangerous.
Similarly, in our study, only self-confidence is not enough, self-confidence and efforts should be organically combined. Some students often see the occasion of the examination, not the least bit nervous, confidently into the examination room. However, after examination, this part of the students in some scores of deadly accuracy, and some fraction is ashamed to see people. This seems unreasonable thing is very simple: this part is both a kind of self-confidence in students, but also hard to study hard; a single self-confidence, but did not pay the effort. These two types of students are full of confidence seems to examination, but usually not the same as the accumulation of knowledge, different consequences.
So, we life, you should do first one full of classics, before a confident person. Because confidence is just a void of power, want to be successful, you have to give confidence to attach to "hard work" on the burning of the mechanical self-confidence, so confidence should force it to play out.

尊敬的各位领导、老师:
上午好!
“青春”一词史于汉代,原意为春季,即一年的开始。而今,青春象征着勃发的生机与活力、无穷的激情与梦想以及不懈的拼搏和进取,同时,青春也意味着青涩、稚嫩与懵懂,我们只有树立了正确的世界观、人生观和价值观,才能在漫漫的人生旅途中把握正确的前进方向。人的一生匆匆数十载,年逝、青春渐老,“莫等闲,白了少年头,空悲切”的古训时刻在心头萦绕,时不我待,恰同学少年时,自当挥斥方遒,将满腔热忱投注到自己的事业当中,用无私奉献的“神笔”为青春描绘出最绚丽的彩锦,让青春在奉献中燃烧出最夺目的花火。
医生和教师,两个神圣而光荣的职业,儿时的我怀揣着这两个理想难以取舍,如今我要感谢命运的垂青,让我从医学院毕业后成为了一名教师,能够鱼与熊掌兼得。当我第一次站在三尺讲台前,面对着一双双求知的眼睛的时候,神圣的使命感油然而生,我清楚的知道“师者,传道授业解惑也”的深刻含义,韩愈将“传道”放在了第一位,就是告诉我们作为一名优秀的教师,首先要注重学生的人格培养,先育人而后才是教书,并不是照本宣科的将书面知识填鸭式的塞给学生就大功告成的。尤其是作为一名讲授医学课程的教师,我时刻把“健康所系,性命相托”的医学生誓词铭刻于心,这简单的八个字,把作为一名医疗工作者的责任表达的淋漓尽致,而我的职责,就是要培养出有医德、有医术、有责任感的“三有”人才。
青春是迷人的,许多人在青春光华里谱写了辉煌灿烂的人生,宋朝21岁的辛弃疾以“金戈铁马,气吞万里如虎”的气势领兵抗金;周19岁时便写了气壮山河的“大江歌罢掉头东”,以表达把青春献给祖国解放事业的决心;雷锋同志19岁参军,甘为革命的螺丝钉,无私奉献,全心全意为人民服务,年仅22岁就献出了年轻的生命。他们是挺立潮头的英雄,是永远不落的星辰,更是我心中的楷模。如果说他们的时代距离我们有些遥远,如果说他们都是特定历史时期的“乱世英雄”,不足以体现新时代年轻人的精神思想的话,那么新形势下的时代英雄,海军大连舰艇学院政治系教授方永刚同志,他的先进事迹,足以感动我们每一个人。方永刚长期从事政治理论教学和研究工作,二十多年来,他始终把学习研究共产党的创新理论作为自己神圣的使命,坚定、忘我、激情地工作着,甚至身患绝症也不舍放下肩上的职责,他的风范和品格显示了一名共产党员政治信仰的力量和优秀教师的高尚境界。
“千江有水千江月,万里无云万里天”,我要把方永刚同志作为学习的楷模,褪尽浮华、开阔胸怀、塑造人生的大气象、思想的大境界。榜样在前,见贤思齐,我将以高度的责任感和使命感,教书育人、为人师表、刻苦攀登、创新进取,为医学教育事业的改革和发展做出自己的贡献。
奉献是一种不求回报的给予,奉献既是一种高尚的情操,也是一种平凡的精神;既包含着崇高的境界,也蕴含着不同的层次。奉献既表现在国家和人民需要的关键时刻挺身而出,慷慨赴义,也融会和渗透在日常的工作和生活中。有人说:“教师的形象是蜡烛,为学生奉献所有的光和热;教师的性格是燃烧,为学生宁愿毁灭自己;教师的行为是楷模,为学生坦露着纯洁和正直;教师的欢乐是奉献,为学生熬尽了满腔热血。”长路奉献给远方,玫瑰奉献给爱情;白云奉献给草场,江河奉献给海洋;而我的青春与热情,要奉献给我的学生,奉献给我所挚爱的教育事业。

A Brother Like That A Brother Like That A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. "Is this your car, Mister?"
he said. Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas."
The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ."
He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish,"
the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?"
the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sathim down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "
中文译文;
哥哥的心愿 圣诞节时,保罗的哥哥送他一辆新车。圣诞节当天,保罗离开办公室时,一个男孩绕着那辆闪 闪发亮的新车,十分赞叹地问:
"先生,这是你的车?"
保罗点点头:"这是我哥哥送给我的圣诞节礼物。"男孩满脸惊讶,支支吾吾地说:"你是说这 是你哥送的礼物,没花你一分钱?天哪,我真希望也能……"
保罗当然知道男孩他真想希望什么。他希望能有一个象那样的哥哥。但是小男孩接下来说的话 却完全出乎了保罗的意料。
"我希望自己能成为送车给弟弟的哥哥。"男孩继续说。
保罗惊愕地看着那男孩,冲口而出地说:"你要不要坐我的车去兜风?"
"哦,当然好了,我太想坐了!"
车开了一小段路后,那孩子转过头来,眼睛闪闪发亮,对我说:"先生,你能不能把车子开到 我家门前?"
保罗微笑,他知道孩子想干什么。那男孩必定是要向邻居炫耀,让大家知道他坐了一部大轿车 回家。但是这次保罗又猜错了。"你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前?"男孩要求道。
男孩跑上了阶梯,过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了,但动作似乎有些缓慢。原来把他跛脚的弟弟 带出来了,将他安置在第一个台阶上,紧紧地抱着他,指着那辆新车。
只听那男孩告诉弟弟:"你看,这就是我刚才在楼上对你说的那辆新车。这是保罗他哥哥送给 他的哦!将来我也会送给你一辆像这样的车,到那时候你就能自己去看那些在圣诞节时,挂窗 口上的漂亮饰品了,就象我告诉过你的那样。"
保罗走下车子,把跛脚男孩抱到车子的前座。兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子,坐在弟弟的 身旁。就这样他们三人开始一次令人难忘的假日兜风。
那个圣诞夜,保罗才真正体会主耶稣所说的"施比受更有福"的道理。

Alibaba Group founder Ma Yun said: "if you do not take action, don't give your dreams a chance to practice, you will never have a chance." Friends, light innovation passion and dreams, just to let you see the door to success, only you have the courage to pay hard, for the dream of unremitting efforts, it can be stepped into the threshold of success. Ma Yun's success is a good illustration of this point. In 1995, Ma decided to resign from the university teaching work, the formation of the Internet Chinese. At that time, the Internet for the United States and other developed countries is just beginning, even even bill gates are opposed to the Internet, in China, not to mention the, the vast majority of people don't know what it is. So, when he called twenty-four friends to vote on the matter, there are twenty-three people opposed that the Internet simply can not achieve this thing. He finds the Internet will change the human life, believe that their ideal will be realized, resolutely embarked on the path of entrepreneurship. But no money, no difficulties as can be imagined, even human, he was mocked as a liar.
I believe many friends present here today have seen the program "Yu Dan Zhuangzi experience", which has a story that I am inspired by, say, Keiko ah, one day to see Zhuang Zi, saying my house has a large gourd, there are five stone. If you put it into two halves, when to scoop water, the gourd skin is too thin, it is broken up in one fell swoop. It doesn't have anything to do with it. It's a big thing. Chuang-tzu said to him, how do you think it must split when the scoop? If it is a complete big gourd, why don't you put it on his waist line, as swimming ring with it? You can go swimming in the river, with a large gourd free to drift this! A story inspires us, in real life, the state determines the judgment of things, it can completely change the fate of a person, we should stand in a large state, know how to change an angle to think, think about whether we can change the way the way of getting along with people, think about whether our method of work can be improved. We think the skills would further improve. Friends, a person to be successful, first of all to have a sense of innovation, as long as you have the dream of innovation and passion, the success of the door is always open for you, life will be more wonderful!
The Asian Wall Street Journal Editor in chief, has described Ma entrepreneurs in their early work environment, "day and night work, to have a sleeping bag, who tired drill into sleep for a while." However, advocating martial spirit of Ma with extraordinary courage and perseverance, with his sword through the clutter and opened a through the broad road to the top of the success and ultimately swordsman, become a "peerless master", and describe the business of a myth! Everyone want to make your life more exciting, often troubled and confused, but as long as have the passion and dreams, persistent innovation, a door for you open - that is, the door to success!
Finally gave everyone a poetic couplet: innovation, career, do not cause; innovation, defeat, also defeated the unbeaten. Hengpi: innovation decides success or failure!
阿里巴巴集团的创始人马云说过这样一句话:“如果不去采取行动,不给自己的梦想一个实践的机会,你永远没有机会。”朋友们,光有创新的激情和梦想,只是让你看到了成功的大门,只有你拿出勇气、付出艰辛,为梦想坚持不懈的努力,那才能跨进成功的门槛。马云的成功很好的说明了这一点。1995年,马云决定辞去大学教书的工作,组建中国的互联网。在当时,互联网对于美国等发达国家来说也是刚刚起步,甚至连比尔盖茨都反对互联网,在中国更不用说了,绝大多数的人根本不知道它是个什么东西。所以,当他召集了二十四个朋友就此事进行表决的时候,有二十三个人反对,认为互联网这东西根本实现不了。他却认定互联网将改变人类生活的方方面面,坚信自己的理想一定能够实现,毅然决然的走上了创业之路。但困难可想而知,没有资金,没有人力,他甚至被人讥笑为骗子。
我相信在座的很多朋友都看过 “于丹《庄子》心得”这个节目,其中有个故事让我很受启发,说的是,惠子啊,有一天去见庄子,说我家有一个大葫芦,有五石之大。要是把它一劈两半,当瓢去盛水的话,这个葫芦皮太薄,往上一举它就碎了。反正用它盛什么东西都不行,这葫芦大得没什么用处。庄子告诉他说,你怎么就认为它非要劈开当瓢使呢?如果它是一个完整的大葫芦,你为什么不把它系在腰间,用它当做游泳圈呢?你可以去浮游于江海啊,带着一个大葫芦自由自在的去漂泊!这个故事启发我们,在现实生活中,境界的大小决定了对事物的判断,也可以完全改变一个人的命运,我们要站在大境界上,懂得换一个角度去思考问题,想想我们待人接物的方式是否可以改变,想想我们的工作方法是否能够改进,想想我们所掌握的技能是否还可能再提高。朋友们,一个人要想成功,首先要有创新的意识,只要你拥有创新的梦想和激情,成功之门就始终为你敞开着,生命一定会更加精彩!
《亚洲华尔街日报》总编曾这样描述马云他们创业初期的工作环境,“没日没夜地工作,地上有一个睡袋,谁累了就钻进去睡一会儿。”但是,崇尚武侠精神的马云具有非凡的勇气和毅力,用他手中的利剑披荆斩棘,开辟出了一条通过成功之巅的康庄大道,最终笑傲江湖,成为一位“绝世高手”,抒写了商界的一段神话!每个人都想让自己的生命更加精彩,却常常陷入困境和迷茫,但只要拥有激情和梦想,坚持不懈的创新,总有一扇门为你打开着——那就是成功之门!
最后送给大家一副对联:有创新,事业成,不成也成;没创新,事业败,不败也败。横批:创新决定成败!

no love among relatives has become a normal phenomenon which needn't to be fussed about. what's worse is when love is contaminated by money. sooner or later we will get hurt. the sooner we get out of this net of love, the more we can preserve beautiful memories.
we are not living in vacuum, and the society is formed of various kinds of people. as long as we want to live, study, or work, we have to contact, communicate and cooperate with others. those who enjoy common interests, mutual understanding, common undertakings and common benefits become friends.
some friends are called fair-weather friends, because they are together just for entertaining themselves by eating, drinking, and gossiping. once there's nothing to eat and drink, their friendship is finished. some are spiritual friends who share common ambitions, pursuits and education. “they enjoy talking and laughing with the great talents and never make friends with the good-for-nothings”. the best examples would be yu boya and zhong ziqi of the ancient times who are famous not only for their lofty music but mainly for their lofty characters and mutual understanding and appreciation. they cared very little about material wealth, so their friendship is known as “gentlemen's friendship as pure as water”.the third type of friendship belong to those who show their utter devotion to each other. they are ready not only to share weal and woe but also to die for each other, like the three brothers liu, guan and zhang in the novel romance of the three kingdoms. . we all wish to have this kind of friendship, but it's of great difficulty for the ordinary people to be as devoted as they were.

Good afternoon, dear teachers and friends!
I' m happy to make a speech here. Thank you for your coming. Now, the topic for my speech today is “Western Festivals.” I would like to talk about Christmas.
Christmas is originally a Christian festival, as you can see from the formation of this word, “Christ-mas.” The first part of the word refers to Jesus Christ, and the second part “mas” comes from the word “mass,” referring to a main religious ceremony in some Christian churches. At first, it was celebrated for the birth of Jesus Christ. Nowadays, although some churches still observe this festival for its religious reason, for most people, including Chinese people, Christmas has already become a day of secular celebrations, when people exchange greetings and gifts. However, it is still a biggest festival in the West. It is as important to the Westerners as the Spring Festival is to the Chinese people.
Christmas day is on the 25th of December, and Christmas Eve is of course the evening of the previous day, the 24th December.
Christmas holiday usually lasts for two weeks, during which most schools have a Christmas break. Many families put the Christmas tree in their house, and hang many decorations on the tree. Under the tree, they usually place many Christmas presents. Giving out presents and receiving presents are what kids like best about this festival.
On Christmas Eve, kids would put stockings at the end of their bed, wishing the Santa Claus would come and give them presents.
As to the tradition of giving and receiving presents in Christmas, I think it has something to do with the nativity story. In the nativity story, on the birthday of baby Jesus, there was a bright star shining in the East. There were three kings in the East who saw the star, and they followed the star all the way to Bethlehem where the star stopped. They came to a manger where baby Jesus was lying. They worshiped the little baby and gave him presents. I think this is a beautiful story. It shows a spirit of sharing and love.
I like Christmas for the presents kids will receive and for its lovely story.
Thank you very much!

Good afternoon ,ladies and gentlemen!
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! my topic is Opportunities and Challenges.
First, I would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? Happiness, wisdom, a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon, he would probably had said,”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.”
Needless to say, one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 20xx Olympic Games. Till now, we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen? New roads, new subway lines, public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors, large blocks of grass fields, and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.
Other than those, there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example, more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment, for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more, Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances, could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?
I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question, ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you?”
For us, I mean the Chinese youth, 20xx Olympic Games is a tremendous gift. Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us .The society is just like a ship, and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Come here and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is, but we have never heard of it in our true life. This morning, however, when we wake up, we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand. After chewing, most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter” ----that is someone who will give comfort to others.
At the end of my speech, I hope all the preparation will go well, and everyone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges.

How to say future?Man’s life is a process of growing up, actually I’m standing here is a growth.
If a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then I grow up along with these choices. Once I hope I can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know I come here, now I wonder what the future holds for (= what will happen to) me.

Honorable Judges, fellow students:
Good afternoon!
Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students arethe beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education atextraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and supportourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Willwe be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of ourcountry?
The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, whichwould cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The collegestudents I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We helpeach other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take parttime jobs to supplement our pocket money.
The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect theneed for character cultivation. But again, the cynics are wrong. We care deeplyfor each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. Lastweek, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order tomake a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point inour lives. We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each willprofoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. I believe inall my fellow classmates. Though we are still inexperienced and even a littlebit childish. I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challengeand take on our responsibilities. We are preparing to assume newresponsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to makeour world a better place. I believe in our future.
尊敬的评委,各位同学:
下午好!
最近,社会上有一场很激烈的争论。大学生是一种稀有特权的享有者,在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是,我们能面对挑战而无所畏惧吗?我们能够改善他人的生活吗?我们能够承担建设祖国未来的重任吗?
怀疑论者说大学生是被宠坏的一代,一丁点挫折都受不了。但是他们错了,我所看到的大学生正在努力的学习独立生活。我们互相帮助打扫卫生,一起上街砍价购物,一起参加兼职工作来赚零花钱。
怀疑论者说我们除了成绩什么都不关心,从而忽略了性格的培养。但是,他们又错了。我们彼此关心,我们向往自由,我们珍惜公正,我们追求真理。上个星期,很多我的同学去验血,为了给患血癌的孩子贡献自己的力量。
作为大学生,我们是处在人生分水岭的青年。我们都面临一个重要的选择:怀疑人生还是相信自己,每一种都会给我们的人生带来重大的影响,甚至影响我们祖国的未来。我相信我们的同学们,虽然我们依然缺乏经验,甚至有些志气,但是我相信我们有勇气和自信来面对生活的挑战并承担我们的责任。我们正努力准备接受新的任务,用我们所学习的知识将世界变得更美好。我对我们的未来充满信心。

Good afternoon ,ladies and gentlemen!
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! To begin with ,I want to ask a question .Does everybody dream a good dream last night? Actually ,today I want to talk about dream with you. Of course, What I want to talk is not a dream you have last night,but a dream—— about life.
Everyone has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us. Dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners(水手),we can chart our course by them. With the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.With the dream, there is hope,With hope, we have the strength to fight.
I have a dream: To be a doctor.,because doctor may relieve the pain of patients. May let the human change the health. At the same time, I believed that, those who help others may be able to obtain joyfully. Therefore, I hoped in the near future ,I might be a doctor.
But I know,life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always comfort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead .
Young!Fortunately, I am young now. Just due to it, I know that nothing is impossible.I firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way. If I can't realize my dream,it result from that I haven't work harder enough and I won't find other excuses. If no people believe you, you can make it to prove that you are right. If you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here, you can become the god and create the truth.
"My breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow, my sword is famous in Kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains." At some time in the past I also had am bitious words and I had some achievements. Each achievement results from my hard work. I always believe that "If you want to have more achievements than others, you must work harder." In some extent, the dream is the hope. If you can insist on doing something, the victory will come.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today. Let's--- move ----out!
Thank you for your listening!

I think the most important modern invention is the Internet. With theInternet, we can do many things. For example, we can shop, learn knowledge,listen to music, and watch movies online. The Internet makes the world smaller.We can meet and talk to friends and relatives far away without spending a lot ofmoney. We can also post our blogs online so our friends can know what we aredoing by visiting our websites like zuowendidai(Joozone). Internet makes ourlife more exciting and easier.
英语演讲稿:自信范文 篇25
In the summer recess between freshman and sophomore years in college, I wasinvited to be an instructor at a high school leadership camp hosted by a collegein Michigan. I was already highly involved in most campus activities, and Ijumped at the opportunity.
About an hour into the first day of camp, amid the frenzy of icebreakersand forced interactions, I first noticed the boy under the tree. He was smalland skinny, and his obvious discomfort and shyness made him appear frail andfragile. Only 50 feet away, 200 eager campers were bumping bodies, playing,joking and meeting each other, but the boy under the tree seemed to want to beanywhere other than where he was. The desperate loneliness he radiated almoststopped me from approaching him, but I remembered the instructions from thesenior staff to stay alert for campers who might feel left out.
As I walked toward him I said, “Hi, my name is Kevin and I’m one of thecounselors. It’s nice to meet you. How are you?”
In a shaky, sheepish voice he reluctantly answered, “Okay, I guess.”
I calmly asked him if he wanted to join the activities and meet some newpeople. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.”
I could sense that he was in a new world, that this whole experience wasforeign to him. But I somehow knew it wouldn’t be right to push him, either. Hedidn’t need a pep talk, he needed a friend. After several silent moments, myfirst interaction with the boy under the tree was over.
At lunch the next day, I found myself leading camp songs at the top of mylungs for 200 of my new friends. The campers were eagerly participated. My gazewandered over the mass of noise and movement and was caught by the image of theboy from under the tree, sitting alone, staring out the window. I nearly forgotthe words to the song I was supposed to be leading. At my first opportunity, Itried again, with the same questions as before: “How are you doing? Are youokay?”
To which he again replied, “Yeah, I’m all right. I just don’t really getinto this stuff. ”
As I left the cafeteria, I too realized this was going to take more timeand effort than I had thought — if it was even possible to get through to him atall.
That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my concerns about himknown. I explained to my fellow staff members my impression of him and askedthem to pay special attention and spend time with him when they could.
The days I spend at camp each year fly by faster than any others I haveknown. Thus, before I knew it, mid-week had dissolved into the final night ofcamp and I was chaperoning the “last dance”. The students were doing all theycould to savor every last moment with their new “best friends” — friends theywould probably never see again.
As I watched the campers share their parting moments, I suddenly saw whatwould be one of the most vivid memories of my life. The boy from under the tree,who stared blankly out the kitchen window, was now a shirtless dancing wonder.He owned the dance floor as he and two girls proceeded to cut up a rug. Iwatched as he shared meaningful, intimate time with people at whom he couldn’teven look just days earlier. I couldn’t believe it was him. In October of mysophomore year, a late-night phone call pulled me away from my chemistry book. Asoft-spoken, unfamiliar voice asked politely, “Is Kevin there?”
“You’re talking to him. Who’s this?”
“This is Tom Johnson’s mom. Do you remember Tommy from leadership camp?”
The boy under the tree. How could I not remember? “Yes, I do”, I said.“He’s a very nice young man. How is he?”
An abnormally long pause followed, then Mrs. Johnson said, “My Tommy waswalking home from school this week when he was hit by a car and killed.”Shocked, I offered my condolences.
“I just wanted to call you”, she said, “because Tommy mentioned you so manytimes. I wanted you to know that he went back to school this fall withconfidence. He made new friends. His grades went up. And he even went out on afew dates. I just wanted to thank you for making a difference for Tom. The lastfew months were the best few months of his life.”
In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of yourself everyday. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tellthis story as often as I can, and when I do, I urge others to look out for theirown “boy under the tree.”
在大一到大二之间的那个暑假,密歇根的一所大学主办一次中学学生干部夏令营,邀我担任辅导员。对于校园的多数活动,我都持赞同态度并积极参与,那次我同样欣然接受了。
头一天活动进行大约一个钟头,我注意到,开始活跃的营员们兴致浓厚,不太自然地互动起来,而树下却有一个孤零零的男孩。他身材矮小,瘦弱不堪,那明显的不安和羞怯使他显得不堪一击。在只有五十英尺远的地方,二百名充满激情的营员正在玩耍、开玩笑并互作介绍,而树下的男孩似乎除了想呆在原地,不想去任何地方。他流露出的极度孤独令我几乎难以靠近,但我没忘记资深辅导员们的提示:对可能感觉受到冷落的营员要保持警惕。
我走向那个男孩,对他说:“嗨!我叫凯文,是你们的辅导员。很高兴认识你,你好吗?”
带着颤抖的怯生生的声音,他勉强答道:“我想——还好吧。”
我平静地问他想不想投入到那些活动从而结识一些人,他轻声回答:“不,那不关我的事。”
我能感觉到他在面对一个新的环境,这种体验对他来说是全然陌生的。也不知为什么,我觉得强迫他加入也不妥当。他不需要鼓励性的讲,他需要的是朋友。几次沉默之后,我和树下男孩的接触就此结束。
第二天吃午饭的时候,我扯开嗓门,领着二百名刚认识的新朋友唱起了营歌。营员们都热情参与,我的目光游移于这群人,忽然那个“树下男孩”的样子吸引了我的注意:他孤零零地坐着,眼瞅着窗外。我几乎忘记了领唱的歌词。只要一有机会,我就会照旧用那些话问他:“你怎么样?你好吗?”
他的回答依然是:“嗯,我很好。我真地不想参与那种事儿。”
我离开自助餐厅的时候充分认识到,扭转这种状况所需的时间和所做的努力要比我想像的要多——即便是在能让他彻底“迷途知返”的情况下。
在当晚的全体工作人员会议上,我告诉了他们我对他的担忧。我向同事们说明他给我留下的印象,请求他们对他给以特别的关注,并尽可能花时间和他在一起。
每年我在营地度过的日子总是一晃而过,感觉比其它时间过得快。这次同样如此。我还没明白过来,星期三已成过去,露营的最后一晚来到了。我伴随营员们跳起“最后的舞蹈”。学生们都在竭力品味跟新“挚友”在一起的最后每一刻——他们或许以后再也见不到面了。
营员们共度这难忘的分别时刻,这时我突然目睹了我一生都记忆最清晰的一幕:那个曾透过厨房窗户茫然盯着外面的树下男孩,此时却成了不穿衬衫的跳舞奇才。他和两个女孩跳着摇摆舞,在舞池里到处舞动。我注视着他跟大家共享这亲密无间又意义深长的时刻,而仅仅几天前他却对他们连瞧也不瞧一眼。判若两人,让我无法相信。
我大二那年的十月,深夜的一个电话让我放下化学课本,一个柔和却生疏的声音彬彬有礼地问道:
“凯文在吗?”
“我就是,您是哪位?”
“我是汤姆?约翰逊的母亲,您还记得那个参加夏令营的汤米吗?”
树下的那个男孩,我怎么会不记得呢?
“我记得。”我说,“他是个很不错的小伙子,他现在情况怎么样?”
长长的反常沉默过后,约翰逊夫人又说道:“汤米这个星期从学校回家的时候,一辆汽车撞了他使他辞别人世。”我感到震惊,向她表示我的哀悼。
“我给您打电话,”她说,“只因为汤米好多次说起过您。我想让您知道,他今年秋季返校时有了自信心,交了新朋友,学习成绩提高了,甚至还出去约会过几次。我只想表达我的感激之情,因为是您改变了他。最后的这几个月是他度过的生命中最美好的时光。”
在那一刻,我意识到,你每天奉献出一点点还是容易得很,你可能永远都不知道你的举动对他人的影响有多大。我常常讲起这个故事,每当讲起的时候,我总是力劝别人也注意一下他们自己的“树下男孩”。
