TED演講 絲德茜·克萊默：我得過(guò)的比較好禮物

Imagine, if you will, a gift. I'd you picture in you mind. 請(qǐng)想象一份禮物，請(qǐng)你們?cè)谀X海中構(gòu)想一下。

It's not too big. About the size of a golf ball.不是很大，大概高爾夫球般大小。

So in vision what it looks like all wrapped up. 包裝看上去大致是這個(gè)樣子。

but before i show you what's inside. 在我揭開謎底之前，

i will tell that's going to do incredible things for you.我先告訴你們這件禮物會(huì)有多么精妙的效果。

It will bring all of your family together. 它會(huì)使你合家團(tuán)聚。

You will feel loved and appreciated like never before. 你會(huì)感受到前所未有的愛與感激。

And reconnect to friends and acquaintances you haven't heard from in years. 與久未謀面的老友和舊識(shí)重聚。

Adoration and admiration will overwhelm you. 愛與贊美會(huì)充盈你身;

It will recalibrate what's important in your life. 你會(huì)重新檢視何為生命中最重要的事。

It will redefine, your sense of spirituality and faith. You'll have a new understanding and trust in you body. 你會(huì)重新定義自己對(duì)精神和信仰的看法;你對(duì)自己的身體也會(huì)有全新的認(rèn)知和信任。

You'll have unsurpassed vitality and energy. 你會(huì)擁有無(wú)與倫比的生命力和能量;

You'll expand your vocabulary, meet new people and you'll have a healthier lifestyle. 你將拓展你的詞匯量，結(jié)交新的朋友，并擁有更健康的生活方式。

And get this, you'll have an eight-week vacation of doing absolutely nothing. 當(dāng)你得到這件禮物時(shí)，你將會(huì)有8個(gè)禮拜的假期，不需要做任何事情;

You'll eat coutless gourmet meals. Flowers will arrive by the truck load. People will say to you: "You look great! Have you had any work done?" And you'll have a life-time supply of good drugs. 你將享用無(wú)盡的佳肴，收到好幾卡車的鮮花;人們會(huì)對(duì)你說(shuō)，“你看起來(lái)氣色真不錯(cuò),完成什么了嗎?”你還會(huì)得到終身的良藥供給。

You'll be challenged, inspired, motivated and humbled. 你將面臨挑戰(zhàn)，被啟發(fā)，被鼓舞，同時(shí)變得更謙虛;

Your life will have new meaning: peace, health, serenity, happiness, nirvana. 你的生命將被賦予新的意義，平和，健康，寧?kù)o，快樂(lè)，猶如涅槃。

The price? 禮物的價(jià)格呢?

Fifty-five thousand dollars. And that's an incredible deal. 55000美金。真是樁好買賣。

By now, I know you're dying to know what it is and where you can get one. 我知道你一定迫不及待地想知道這到底是什么?

Does Amazon carry it? Does it have the apple logo on it? Is there a waiting list? 在哪里可買到?亞馬遜網(wǎng)站上有嗎?是蘋果公司的產(chǎn)品嗎?要排隊(duì)等貨嗎?

Not likely. 都不對(duì)。

This gift came to me about five months ago. 大概5個(gè)月前，我收到了這份禮物。

And looked more like this when it was all wrapped up. Not quite so pretty. 包裹起來(lái)的話，大概是這個(gè)樣子。沒(méi)那么漂亮。

And this. And then this(A picture after operation). 之后是這個(gè)，還有這個(gè)。

It was a rare jam. A brain tumor. Hemangioblastoma. 一個(gè)罕見的麻煩，一顆腦瘤，成血管細(xì)胞瘤。

The gift that keeps on giving. And while I'm ok now. 這禮物一直在影響著我，現(xiàn)在我已無(wú)大礙了。

I wouldn't wish this gift for you. I'm not sure you'd want it. But I wouldn't change my experience. It profoundly alterned my life in ways it didn't expect. In all the ways I just shared with you. 我不希望這份禮物降臨于你，因?yàn)槲也淮_定你是否想得到。但是我不渴望改變過(guò)去。它突如其來(lái)，徹底改變了我的生活，帶來(lái)了以上所述的那些改變。

So the next time youare faced with something that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain, consider, that's just may be a gift. 所以下一次，當(dāng)你面對(duì)意料之外的避之不及和前途未卜的事，不妨就把它看成一份禮物。
