分享你一个故事，也许你可以用来鼓励你自己或你的朋友。

猜猜谁说这句话："....I also became fairly depressed at my lack of social graces and everything seemed pretty pointless. It culminated in a night of drunken disorder that ended in the police station, and poor Meredith was hauled out to retrieve me. Covered in shame, I felt nobody would ever speak to me again..."



其实这句话是2002年Nobel Prize in Medicine得主 Sir John Sulston 回想他以前在Cambridge大学的时光。(http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/2002/sulston.html)

你应该没想过吧？没想过一个获得科学界最高荣誉Nobel Prize的人在大学时也曾经迷茫过吧？

“Of course my misdemeanour was hardly noticed, motivating me to make some sort of effort in my final year..."　他接着说。

我想说的是：每件事的发生都有其原因，没有绝对的好，也没有绝对的坏，就好像赛翁失马也。就好像我有一个好朋友说过的“when god turns his back on you, take another look” =) we just need to focus on the good side of things.. 很多事都是种学习。

重要的是：只要你肯努力，你的潜能是无限的。

证严上人的静思语有句：“不要小看自己，因为人有无限的可能"。大家共勉之。
