你和誰去? | 林稟彬 | |
On earth, there are many
beautiful sightseeing places. Yet, it is even more important that: “With
whom you travel for your journey?”
Nancy Chang, has never been a
high-up in TMs organization, had 100% attendance since the inception of
Happy Life Toastmasters Club at Keelung, even though she had fought
against throat cancer for 17 years. She was afraid that she might lose her
voice after another surgery before she completed her #6 advanced speech.
On January 3, 2003, she invited me to serve as her individual evaluator at
Keelung. Many of her families showed up for that meeting. I presented her
D67 banner, TM cap, and TM sports shirt to appreciate her for her speech.
That was her final speech in her life as she passed away two months later.
We are her families.
Mother Teresa, when she was told
that she would be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize of 1979. She said, “I am
unworthy.”
“Though I speak with the tongues
of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a
clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand
all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I
could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing….
Love suffers long and is kind;
Love does not envy; Love does not parade itself; is not puffed up;
愛是恆久忍耐, 又有恩慈;
愛是不嫉妒; 愛是不自誇,
不張狂, Bears all things,
Believes all things, Hopes all things; Endures all things.
I still remember Table Topic
Master Richard Fang directed his questions to me, 25 years ago, “What are
you going to say at my funeral?” “What do you want people to say at your
funeral?” These table topics may still apply nowadays.
