祝賀|中黃世界書院GIA高中首屆感恩節(jié)活動(dòng)圓滿舉辦

“家書千里異鄉(xiāng)來，攜子傍牛慢展開”“洛陽(yáng)城里見秋風(fēng)，欲作家書意萬重”……幾千年來，家書都是思親寄情的紐帶。一紙家書，不足千言，卻見證了個(gè)人成長(zhǎng)、親子關(guān)系、家族發(fā)展，承載著親人之間深厚的親情，承載著一個(gè)家庭的歷史。古有劉邦的《手敕太子文》、諸葛亮的《戒子書》，近有《曾國(guó)藩家書》《傅雷家書》，都給了我們無盡的家教啟示和人生智慧。

夫君子之行，靜以修身，儉以養(yǎng)德，非淡泊無以明志，非寧?kù)o無以致遠(yuǎn)。夫?qū)W須靜也，才須學(xué)也，非學(xué)無以廣才，非志無以成學(xué)。淫慢則不能勵(lì)精，險(xiǎn)躁則不能治性。年與時(shí)馳，意與日去，遂成枯落，多不接世，悲守窮廬，將復(fù)何及。

——諸葛亮《誡子書》

General MacArthur‘s Prayer For His Son

　　Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory.

　　Build me a son whose wishes will not take the place of deeds; a son who will know Thee—and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.

　　Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here let him learn to stand up in the storm; here let him learn compassion for those who fail.

　　Build me a son whose heart will be clear, whose goal will be high; a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men; one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.

　　And after all these things are his, add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take him too seriously.Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, and the meekness of true strength.

　　Then I, his father, will dare to whisper, “ I have not lived in vain.”

——麥克阿瑟將軍《為子祈禱文》
