【日常 : Daily】父亲的生日祝辞

刚收到父亲提前两天发来的《生日祝辞》,甚喜,拿来分享。

  儿子:你的生日又到了,时间过得真快。你每长大一岁,爸爸就年老一岁。人有的时候很矛盾。爸爸希望你早点长大,成人,走上社会,可是不希望自己很快衰老。然而,自然法则是不可违背的。等你到了爸爸这个年龄就有体会了。

  前几天你提到换学校换专业的事,爸爸尊重你的选择。由于对真实情况知之不多,不能妄下断言。但是爸爸的阅历比你深,经历的事情比你多,所以我还是想讲点想法供你参考。

  首先,你要搞清楚自己换学校换专业的真正原因。是不是现在学的专业太难了,学不下去了,知难而退?曾记否,你在白云路小学、八中都没有读完就转学了。这次换学校换专业如果是因为你现在学得太难了,我就想提醒你,新的选择未必不难。如果不从根本上解决学习中的畏难情绪,仅靠换学校换专业是不解决问题的。

  第二,你对自己新的选择是不是真正了解。中国有句俗话,这山望着那山高。实际上,那山可能没有这山高。你说对现在的专业不喜欢,我想问,当初也不喜欢吗?当初也是你自己的选择。那么现在你喜欢新的专业,会不会以后又不喜欢了呢?国内的人们常说,干一行爱一行。爸爸想告诉你,学一行爱一行,只要功夫到,行行出状元。此次换了学校和专业,如果又“发现”新的“更喜欢”的专业,怎么办?还换不换?

  第三,时间也不允许一个人经常换专业。当初你在八中如果不离开,正常得话现在已经大学毕业了。重新换学校换专业,在学校学习的时间,读本科的时间就必然延长,今后还读不读研究生?另外,对于工薪家庭来讲,子女在新加坡上学是高成本的,长期学下去不是上策。而我们又不希望你为了减轻家里的负担去打工挣钱。所以,要珍惜在国外的时间,在有限的时间里学习更多的东西。

  以上三点意见仅供参考。你自己选择的道路还是要你自己走的。

  你即将十九岁了。现在正是世界观形成时期。在抓紧学习的同时,要增强自己辨别是非的能力,使自己逐步变成不仅有知识有文化而且有头脑有思想的人。

  首先,不能忘记自己是中国人,要通过自己的言行体现中国人的优秀品质和传统美德。要看到每个民族都有其优秀的一面和不足的一面。要正确认识和对待自己的祖国,既不妄自尊大,也不妄自菲薄。在外国人面前要不卑不亢,保持尊严。

  其次,要做一个真正的无神论者。在确信世界上没有神没有上帝可以帮助你之后,你才能够凭借自己的力量实现自己的理想。

  第三,要有所成就,不能虚度一生。既要对得起父母,也要对得起自己和国家。特别是在国外,你只有有所成就,才能让外国人对你刮目相看。中国早在清代就向国外派遣留学生,这一批批留学生,出去的时候都差不多,几年后乃至几十年后结果相差极大,其实例不胜枚举。

  要实现以上三个目标,首先要有一个强健的身体,这是学习和工作的成本;其次要有一个良好的生活习惯,这是学习和工作的保障;第三要有一个科学的学习方法,这是在崎岖的山路上达到顶峰的捷径。当然,身体要靠自己去锻炼,习惯要靠自己去养成,方法要靠自己去探索和总结。

  19岁,精力最充沛最旺盛的阶段,在一个人的一生中是非常宝贵的。俗话说,一寸光阴一寸金,寸金难买寸光阴。过了40岁,几乎人人都感到光阴似箭,二三十年,弹指一挥间。最后,爸爸再一次郑重提醒你,不要过早结交女朋友。其利弊我不讲你也清楚。25岁以后再考虑,那时候你更成熟,更有魅力,看人看得更准,考虑问题更加周到。

  一定要珍惜时间,利用好时间!

  生日快乐!

不知道是因为我长大了还是因为父亲对我的作战方针有所改变,现在比较容易接受他的一些看法了。高兴~

just read this piece of blog... I agree with t... although parents are more experienced in certain sense, they have the wisdoms that we are going to aquire in future, but after all, the life is yours and you make the decision... We are young and there are plenty of oppotunities there... Maybe this time it was not successful but you still have chances.. between learning to love what you are studying and searching for what is really worthy of your persuit, it is really difficult to balance ... may more exposure do your benefit, and I always wish everyone can find their true love, love of the career and love of your life partner... we learn and we grow, we are brave.

ur father's comment about choosing a major made me think of marriage. You married your wife. What if there is a girl you think you like more appear after that? Maybe it's time to think why you've chosen ur wife in e 1st place. There's an interesting psychological question set by a professor in shanxi med school: " you've walked into a desert and very thirsty. You suddenly see a bowl of dirty water--very dirty. Will you drink it??" ```But sometimes the environment u r exposed to is an importan factor. In my university, 60% of freshman have switched their major at least once by the time they are senior students. The system of most of the Us here are meant to give u flexibility to switch majors. U r only 19, full of energy and hope. Maybe it's not a bad idea after all to switch. Some minutes ago I met the dean of math. She helped me to waive all the math & CS courses required 4 my major. But in the end i told her i m not sure if i wanna take another major of math.(actually i dun wanna take it) She assured me, U r an adult and ur decision is going to be respected. U know what? it's ok to say no. we r only here to help u make a better decision...i dunno why i m very touched. She is not angry at all by helping me and in the end i didn't go to her math department. i think sometimes the western ppl have some spirits i really like. Just like the Chinese would not understand why the Americans like William Hung so much. www.williamhung.net He really have some spirits...(he's an engi stu of uc berkeley but has a passion 4 singing)

"由于对真实情况知之不多,不能妄下断言。"……这句话可圈可点……
