翻轉視界 18 Changing Perspective

There's not just one road to the destination, but many roads. You just need to take the little step that’s right in front of you, and then the next one, and a few years down the track, they will seem like massive achievements.

通往目的地的路不止一條，有很多路可走。你只需要邁出眼前這一小步，然後再邁出下一步，幾年下來，將會成為巨大成就。

I didn’t meet my father until I was 6 years old. My parents had a comfortable, middle-class life in Shanghai, or as close as you could get under communism. But they always wanted to live overseas, and just before I was born, my dad came to Sydney to set things up. I don’t know why, but in the end, my mother and I didn’t join him until I was 6.

•a middle-class life 中產階級生活
•set things up 打點一切
•live overseas 往海外生活
•in the end 最後 (表達在經過一段時間或一連串事件之後的結果)

直到六歲前我都未曾見過父親。我的雙親在上海過著舒適的中產階級生活，或著說，在共產階級下所能得到的最接近的生活。他們一直響往海外生活，就在我出生前，我父親來到雪梨打點一切。但不知何故，直到六歲那年我與母親才終於與父親團聚。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Unfortunately, half a year after we arrived, he left us. That was a huge shock. Our transition had already been quite difficult, as we both didn't speak English. Also, as Shanghai was such a big bustling city, Sydney felt a bit like the countryside, especially on the weekends, as no shops were open back then!

•shock 令人震驚的事件（或經歷）；驚愕，震驚 (come as a great shock 讓人倍感震驚)
•transition 轉變；過渡
•a bustling city 繁華都會

不幸的是，就在我跟母親抵達半年後，父親離開了我們。這是個巨大的打擊，因爲我們不會說英文，在適應過渡期本就已過得相當艱辛。此外，不同於上海的繁華都會，雪梨更像鄉下，尤其在週末，那時連商店都不開門。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

We were very much reliant on my dad, not only financially, but also as a conduit into the wider community. So to have that broken was quite distressing. I remember Mum crying a lot. As we had become socially isolated, we didn’t find out anything about Centrelink, so we survived on her savings for a while, and then got some help from her family back in China.

•be reliant on… 依賴...
•a conduit into 進入...的渠道
•distressing (adj.) 令人苦惱的,令人擔憂的
•become socially isolated 變得孤立於社會
•survive on her savings 僅靠的她積蓄過日子

我們相當依賴我父親，不僅是經濟，他也是我們進入更廣泛社區的渠道。因此，當局面被打破時令人相當痛苦，我還記得母親時常哭泣。由於我們孤立於社會，所以我們並不知道澳洲社會福利聯絡中心 （Centrelink）的任何資訊，僅靠母親的積蓄支撐了一段時間，然後從母親在中國的娘家得到一些幫助。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Eventually, Mum moved us down to Melbourne, where we were able to make some new networks and family friendships. But I was bullied a bit at school about things like my food and clothing! Whenever someone bullied me, I would defend myself, but because I didn’t have the language skills to explain to the teacher why, I got in trouble quite a bit. I ended up having to move school 3 times before I came to Balwyn Primary School, which was relatively multicultural.

•be able to 能夠
•make new networks 建立新的人脈，關係網
•be bullied 被霸凌
•language skills 語言能力
•get in trouble 惹上麻煩
•end up 最後處於；最後成爲；以…告終
•relatively 相對地
•multicultural 多元文化的

最後，母親帶著我搬遷到墨爾本，在那我們能夠建立起新的網絡與家庭情誼。然而。我在學校飽受霸凌，例如我的食物及衣物。每當有人霸凌我，我會自我防衛，但我的語言技巧不足以向老師解釋事發原因，因此常常陷入麻煩。後來我不得不再三轉學，直到就讀相對多元文化的博文小學（Balwyn Primary School）。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

After that, I did alright. Music featured very prominently in my life. I had started learning the violin from the age of 2.5 years old and even with all the troubles that were going on in my life, had somehow still kept up with it. As a result, I got a music scholarship to Trinity Grammar School. But even there I used to get into quite a lot of mischief, and would often skip school to go to the movies.

•do alight 過得不錯，做的不錯
•feature (v.) 以…為特色；給…以顯著的地位
•prominently 重要地；著名地；突出地，顯眼地

之後，我便過得不錯。音樂在我生活中佔有重要的一席之地，我從兩歲半開始學習小提琴，儘管生活中事事不如意，我依然堅持不輟。因此，我獲得三一文法學校（ Trinity Grammar School）的音樂獎學金。但即使在那，我也常惡作劇、逃學看電影。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

By the end of year 11, I was told I would have to either repeat the year, or consider going to another school, which was quite humiliating for my mum. I decided to move school and surprisingly, I ended up doing quite well in year 12! As a result, I ended up getting into a double degree in Law and Music at Monash.

•repeat the year 留級 ; 重唸一年
•humiliating 令人感到恥辱的，丟臉的

11年級結束時，我被告知要麽被留級，要麼考慮轉學，這對我母親來說相當丟人。我決定轉學，而令人驚訝的是，我在12年級的時候表現優異，最後錄取蒙納士大學法律與音樂雙學位。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

When I started, my first thought was that I didn’t belong because I had done so badly in school up to year 11 and everyone else seemed so smart. But I put my head down, got through it, and ended up getting a job in the legal department of a major manufacturing company, which was a different approach to what most law students do.

•do not belong 不屬於這
•put my head down 埋頭苦幹
•the legal department of ...的法律部門
•a different approach 不同途徑
•approach （思考問題的）方式，方法，態度

當我開始進入大學，最初的想法是我不屬於這，因為我在11年級前都表現不佳，而這裡的人似乎都聰明絕頂。但我埋頭苦幹，咬牙撐過，最後在一家大型製造公司的法律部門找到工作，這與多數法律系學生的途徑不同。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

I really enjoyed it. It was hard work, but I learned a lot of foundational business, legal and corporate communication skills. After that I worked in corporate governance in RMIT, then started to moonlight as a lecturer in the Law Faculty. Eventually, they asked me if I wanted to do a PhD and I blindly said yes! I next worked at Swinburne University, and then was head-hunted to lead the corporate legal team at the Commercial Passenger Vehicles Commission.

•foundational 基礎的
•communication skills 溝通技巧
•corporate governance
•moonlight (v.) （尤指瞞著僱主）從事第二職業，兼職
•headhunt (v.) 物色（人才）； 挖角
•legal team 法律團隊

我非常喜歡這份工作，這是份辛苦的工作，但我學習了很多基礎商業、法律以及公司溝通技巧。之後我在皇家墨爾本理工大學（ RMIT）從事公司治理工作，並開始兼職擔任法律系講師。後來他們問我是否想要讀博士，我便盲目地答應了。接下來，我在斯威本大學（Swinburne University）工作，再被挖角到商用小客車委員會領導法律團隊。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

I had a good life, but after a while, I realised I wanted a different kind of job. I could see my seniors were making a lot of money but that their family life was not that good. And looking at my own upbringing, I wanted to be the kind of father who could be present in my own kids’ lives. So I decided on dentistry. It would not only allow me to use the hand skills that I had developed from playing the violin, but also the analytical and reasoning skills that I'd developed in law. Plus it would be flexible, and offer me a stable income and the chance to meet different people every day!

•upbringing 教養
•decide on sth 決定某事或東西
•analytical and reasoning skills 分析和推理能力
•offer a stable income 提供穩定收入

我的生活很不錯，但一段時間後，我意識到自己想要一份不同的工作。我知道前輩們賺了很多錢，但他們的家庭生活並不美滿。看著自己的成長經歷，我想要成為可以在孩子生活中出席的父親，所以我決定改行當牙醫。這項職業能讓我使用從拉小提琴中發展出的手部技巧，也能運用我在法律中發展出的分析與推理技能。此外，這個職業相當靈活，能為我提供穩定收入，並有機會每天與不同的人見面。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

My now fiancée, who was my girlfriend at the time, was also applying for further study, and coincidentally we both got into university in South Australia, so we moved to Adelaide together a few years ago.

•fiancée 未婚妻
•at the time 當時
•apply for 申請
•further study 繼續教育，進修；進一步研究；深造
•coincidentally 碰巧地；巧合地

我的未婚妻，當時的女友，也申請繼續深造，巧的是我們都考上南澳大學（University of South Australia)，所以幾年前一起搬到阿得雷德（ Adelaide）。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

I was lucky to get a university job at Flinders University. Initially, I started out as a casual lecturer in the law school, but I’ve since transitioned into teaching health law and research, and I’m currently writing a few books on the intersection between law and medicine. And also, obviously, trying to finish my dentistry degree!

•start out as… 起初擔任...
•transition into… 轉變到...

我很幸運的在福林德斯大學（Flinders University）找到工作，起初我在法學院擔任臨時講師，但我後來轉換到醫事法教學及研究。目前我正撰寫幾本關於法律與醫學相接的書籍，並努力完成我的牙醫學位。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Mum eventually retrained as a Chinese high school teacher, and she’s still teaching to this day. Like most first generation migrants, she struggled quite a lot, and invested heavily in my success. After we’re married, my fiancée and I are planning to have children, and I’m sure they will have it much easier than I did.

•retrain 重新培養；再培訓；再訓練
•to this day 至今
•first generation migrants 第一代移民
•struggle a lot 掙扎奮鬥許久
•have it much easier 過的比較輕鬆

我的母親最終重新接受培訓，成為一名中文高中老師並執教至今。如同大多數第一代移民，她掙扎奮鬥許久，並為我的成功投資甚多。我與未婚妻打算婚後生孩子，我確信孩子會過的比我輕鬆得多。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Still, a lot of the failures that I’ve had in my life have really informed a lot of my successes. Looking back, I wouldn't really want to change that to have a smoother life.

•inform [正式] 影響某人的態度或意見
https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/inform

•have a smoother life 有一個更順遂的人生

我的生活中的種種失敗確實為我的成功提供借鑑。回首過去，我不會想要改變那些坎坷經歷去擁有一個更順遂的人生。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Over the years, I've learned that perseverance is very important. I hope that through telling my story, I can be an example to others who might be in a similar position as I was: to show that there's not just one road to the destination, but many roads. You just need to take the little step that’s right in front of you, and then the next one, and a few years down the track, they will seem like massive achievements.

•over the years 多年來
•perseverance 不屈不撓，堅持不懈
•be an example 成為榜樣
•be in a similar position 處於相似的處境
•down the road/line/track 將來(的路)

多年來，我學到堅持不懈是至關重要的。我希望透過講述自己的故事，能成為其他可能與我有相似處境的人的榜樣：向他們展示通往目的地的路不止一條，有很多路可走。你只需要邁出眼前這一小步，然後再邁出下一步，幾年下來，將會成為巨大成就。

💗【禮義廉恥故事】～德政緣蛇
武蘇氏。武用。妻蘇氏。生子德政而寡。夫兄利其資欲嫁之。不聽。未幾。夫兄舉家死。惟餘三弱孫。蘇氏取而育之。德政事母至孝。蘇卒。時天旱。政方掘地求水供葬事。忽二蛇躍出。隨其地掘之。果得泉。（列女傳） 武某欲嫁弟婦。目的原在奪產。豈知舉家將亡。縱得資產。不能享用耶。幸蘇氏得保貞節。而貪人後嗣。亦賴以存活。所以謂一人行善。舉家有福。一人作惡。舉家有禍。餘慶餘殃之說。確鑿可據。
武蘇氏是元朝時武用的妻子蘇氏，生了一個兒子名叫德政，不幸丈夫就去世了。蘇氏決心守節，不再婚嫁，全心全意教養兒子，期盼兒子長大有成。
不料丈夫的哥哥，貪圖要佔有弟媳蘇氏的資產，因而處心積慮要將蘇氏改嫁，蘇氏意志堅定，始終不肯聽從。
後來不久，丈夫的哥哥全家不幸相繼死亡，只有遺留下三個弱小的孫子，蘇氏憐憫三個孤兒，無依無靠，於是接來盡心撫養，使他們個個長大成人。
蘇氏的兒子德政，深深感念其母艱苦守節，養育恩德，後來終於不負所望，品行端正，事奉母親極盡孝道，傳聞鄉里。
後來蘇氏年老去世時，因為久旱不雨缺水，德政正在掘地祈求能取得地下水，以便供應辦理其母喪葬事宜，忽然從地下躍出兩條蛇，德政隨順著蛇出來的地處挖掘，果然湧出泉水，天旱缺水的問題，因而如願解決。

📝【學習心得】
「愛」是建立與人為善、與萬物為善，並不是建立在自私行為上的，愛不是一種佔據擁有與控制，而是一種和諧共生的概念。在地球上並非只有人類的自私佔據，應該學習仁愛他人與萬物，更不該傷害弱小物種與花草植物，每一生命的存在都屬地球的一份子，人類都該學習禮敬對待萬物，甚至小至昆蟲螞蟻蚊子都是，不拆散他人家庭，為一己私利傷害他人之事。
有倫理、道德、因果的教育學習為根基，才明白所謂的【愛】是理智、清楚的，因為有這份愛，在現今社會的混亂之中，明辨是非且將心比心，心中的仁愛為他人付出不求回饋之心，放下心中自身的對立、紛爭、糾結，才能將心中的愛無限擴大，包容 接納一切人事萬物，也逐步相信「積善之家必有餘慶，積不善之家必有餘殃」，心中誠摯到極處的敬愛、仁愛會感得一切天地萬物。

💗【禮義廉恥故事】～邦耀却竹

明施邦耀。共驚為神。却朱墨竹。好學守仁。

📍【原文】
明施邦耀、好王守仁之學。為漳州知府。盡知屬縣奸盗主名。每發輒得。闔境驚為神。遷福建布政使。或饋之朱墨竹。姊子請受之。曰。我受之。彼即得乘間以嘗我。我則示之以可欲之門矣。竟却而不受。
許止净謂邦耀我若受之、彼即得乘間以嘗我、二語。最為見道之言。夫人于性情之間。好惡之際。偶有所偏。最易使人乘間而入。大學云。有所好樂。則不得其正。斯修身者萬世之准繩也。
📍【白话解释】
明朝时候。有一個姓施名叫邦耀的。很喜欢研究王陽明先生的學问。他在漳州地方做知府官的时候。先把所有屬下縣分里的、作奸犯科不法份子的名字。都打聽得明明白白。所以每次有了案件發生出来。就立刻得到了主犯。闔地方的人都覺得奇怪。以為他是神明了。後来施邦耀升官做了福建地方的布政使。有個人送给他福建地方特產的朱色墨色的竹。他姊姊的儿子叫他收受了。施邦耀就说道。我倘然收受了。他就可以乘了这個空隙来試驗我。那末我就给他看出欲望的門路了。终于谢绝了这些朱色墨色的竹。不肯收受。

📝【學習心得】
古聖先賢對道德涵養極為看重，嚴以律己，更是多少小細微處都不馬虎，因有這樣的氣節有正氣凜然之大器。反省自身常以微不足道之事覺得沒差、沒關係而輕視他，心中已失去所謂的「禮敬」，也因多少大小的沒差與輕視，也很難往廉潔、清淨的道路上前行。這好惡之心，讓人有了分別、有了欲望，當心態偏頗，有其好惡，欲望滋生，開始不懂知足，心一偏頗因此產生行儀的偏差，古聖先賢所說的「正」字，也就偏離太遠了。
再觀古聖先賢，不畏權勢、眼前利益，而會做出犧牲他人求全自身，只求問心無愧的待人處事，無論是什麼身份一樣可為他人付出奉獻，只要能盡力，願為天下蒼生幸福為做人宗旨盡一己之力為做人本分努力。

陳宏昌挺小英 酸韓「讓他不知道怎麼教小孩」
陳宏昌說，他的兒子最近問他「你是國民黨員，為什麼不反映？怎麼可以提名一個整天打麻將、整天吃喝玩樂又抱女人的人當總統，那以後我也要這樣。」狠酸國民黨提名的韓國瑜，陳宏昌笑說，他真的不知道怎麼教小孩。

宏昌不會教小孩，鈞鈞幫你提醒一下⋯
陳公子，人家說年少輕狂，最重要的是，有自省能力的人，能夠改過向善！也因為這些經歷造就現在的韓國瑜市長，現在的他，面對誘惑不容易動搖，並且有同理心⋯⋯
人非聖賢，孰能無過，知恥近乎勇，浪子回頭金不換！
我們要選的是現在的韓國瑜，不是20年前的他！孩子啊，你現在用功讀書考了95分，做爸爸的也不會還在罵你20年前考30分⋯
知錯能改善莫大焉，最怕知錯不改罪惡滔天！不要只會找藉口、硬拗！選舉還是拿出政績少酸人
