                                 A   Father`s    Prayer   by   General   Douglas   MacArthur


麥帥為子祈禱文       作者/美國  麥克阿瑟將軍


 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.


主啊!請你陶冶我的兒子,使他的心地純潔,目標高超。


主啊!請陶冶我的兒子,使他成為一個堅強的人,


能夠知道自己什麼時候是軟弱的;


使他成為一個勇敢的人,能夠在畏懼的時候認清自己,謀求補救。


使他在誠實的失敗中,能夠自豪而不屈,在獲得成功之際,能夠謙遜而溫和。


 


 


Build me a son whose wishbone will not be where his backbone should be; 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.


 請陶冶我的兒子,使他不要以願望代替實際作為,


使他能夠認識主—並且曉得自知乃是知識的基石。


我祈求你,不要引導他走上安逸舒適的道路,而要讓他遭受困難與挑戰的磨練和策勵。


讓他藉此學習在


風暴之中挺立起來,讓他藉此學習對失敗的人加以同情。


 


 


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 learn  to laugh, yet never forget how to weep; 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 forget take  himself too seriously.


在企圖駕馭他人之前,先能駕馭自己。


要懂得去笑,並不忘記如何哭泣;


對未來善加籌畫,但永遠不忘記過去。


在他把以上諸點都已做到之後,還請賜給他充分的幽默感,


使他可以永遠保持嚴肅的態度,


但決不自視非凡,過於拘執。


 


 


Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true   greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, the meekness of true strength.


請賜給他謙遜,使他可以永遠記住真實偉大的樸實無華,


真實智慧的虛懷若谷,和真實力量的溫和蘊藉。


 



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


然後,作為他父親的我,才敢低聲說道:「我已不虛此生!」

這也是媽咪對天祈禱的祈望 : 誠實 . 負責 . 同理心 . 既堅強知軟弱 . 虛懷若谷 . ....


懂得對自己幽默    對知識追求精進   尋找到生命中的熱情堅決和持續


這樣媽咪才能低聲說 :  *  我不虛此生 !  *   


希望你能體會身為父母對孩子的用心啊 !!
