JK罗琳哈佛毕业典礼英语演讲稿:感染你的人生旅程
Dear fellow graduates, distinguished guests, and faculty members,
It is an absolute honor to stand before you today and address the graduating class of Harvard University. I am grateful for this opportunity to share with you a few thoughts about the journey that lies ahead of you and how it is we can find meaning and purpose during the twists and turns of life.
When I was asked to speak at this graduation ceremony, I was reminded of my own journey as a writer and how I was shaped by the people and experiences I encountered along the way. It was a journey that began many years ago, long before I ever dreamed of writing about a boy wizard and a magical world.
Growing up, I was not the happiest of children. My parents had a difficult marriage, and they fought constantly. My mother suffered from a debilitating illness, which left her bedridden for much of my childhood. And I struggled
academically, feeling like I could never live up to the expectations of my teachers and peers.
Despite these challenges, there were people who inspired and encouraged me to follow my dreams. They were the teachers who saw something in me that I couldn't see myself. The friends who showed me kindness and compassion when I needed
it most. And the authors and books that transported me to new worlds and helped me to see the beauty and wonder of life.
It was these people who lit a spark within me and set me on a path to becoming a writer. As I wrote, I found that I could create new stories and worlds that allowed me to explore my own thoughts and feelings. It gave me a sense of purpose and meaning that I had never felt before.
For me, writing was a way to make sense of the world and to connect with others. It was a journey that took me to places I never imagined and introduced me to people who would forever change my life. And it all started with that spark of inspiration that was ignited by the people I encountered along the way.
As you embark on your own journey, I encourage you to seek out those people who will inspire and inspire you. They may be the teachers who push you to excel, the friends who
lift you up when you fall, or the strangers who offer a helping hand when you need it most. They are the ones who
will help you to find your path and to stay true to your values and beliefs.
But finding these people is just the first step. The true challenge is in recognizing them when they appear and being open to the lessons they have to teach you. It requires a willingness to let go of your preconceptions and to embrace the unknown. It requires a willingness to take risks and to learn from your mistakes. And it requires a willingness to be humble and to ask for help when you need it.
As you navigate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, remember that your journey is not about reaching a destination. It is about the people you meet along the way and the impact they have on your life. It is about the lessons you learn and the changes you make. And it is about finding joy and fulfillment in the moments, both big and small, that make up your life.
