Do we teach the basic values? 5. Do we prepare students for an unknown future? 6. Do we prepare students for cultural diversity? 7. Do we prepare students for global citizenship? 8. Do we help students connect with the real world? 9. Do we nurture the journey from awareness to action? 10. Do we nurture in students a passion for learning, not a passion for knowing?

凡事不必苛求
來了就來了
凡事不必計較
過了就過了
結果不要強求
做了就對了
生活就是一種簡單
心靜了就平和了
不要去拒絶忙碌
因為它是一種充實
不要去抱怨挫折
因為它是一種堅強
“You’ll treat someone terribly. Whether it to be a lover or your friend, there’ll be someone whose feelings you take for granted. We focus too much on whether or not someone is hurting us. The reality is that we might actually be the one who’s hurting someone.”

“You’ll see your parents get older. You’ll come home during Christmas break and see new lines developing on their faces. One day it’ll just hit you that your parents are old and going to die. There’s nothing you can do about it, besides treat them with kindness and visit as much as your budget permits.”

“You’ll question every decision you make and never feel completely certain that you made the right choice. It’s pointless to wonder though. You’re here now so you might as well make it be the right decision.”

“You’re going to lose touch with a lot of your friends. With some people, it will be expected but with others it will feel like a punch to the stomach. No friendship is truly safe in your twenties. You’re undergoing so many personal and professional changes that there’s bound to be some casualties along the way. Don’t worry though. You’ll end up with the ones that matter. If someone’s no longer in your life, it’s for a reason.”

“To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.”
