26、“What’s the meaning of life?” This is a question we all ask ourselves at one point or another. The best answer that I came across was written by the great psychologist (心理学家), Viktor Frankle. He wrote that “The meaning of life is to give life meaning.”

When I was a young boy, I gave my life meaning by simply playing, running, jumping, swimming, laughing and riding my bike.

When I went to school, I gave my life meaning by learning, studying hard, getting good grades and trying to make my mom and dad proud.

When I was a teenager, I found meaning in playing sports and hanging out with my friends.

In college, I found my life meaning by deciding what I wanted to study and what job I would prepare for.

When I was working as a teacher, I found meaning in helping to open young minds to new ideas and old wisdom.

When I married and had kids, I found meaning in protecting and watching over those I loved. When I found out both of my sons were mentally handicapped (弱智的), I found meaning in loving them, caring for them and learning so much from them about life, love, patience, faith and joy.

As I grew older, I began to understand meaning isn’t something that comes and goes. We can give meaning to every moment of our lives. We can bring meaning to the thoughts we have. We can bring meaning to the things we do. We can bring meaning to the hearts we touch. All we have to do is to love.

It is love that makes life worth living. It is love that gives life meaning.

27、We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. This article gives some suggestions on how to give a successful speech.

So, you have to give a speech and you’re frightened. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结巴)over words, you talk too long and your listeners feel tired of your speech. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”

Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that bad. You can do the following things to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion(场合)? Why are you speaking? Then, collect as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time putting your material in good order so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible and use pictures, charts and graphs if they help you make your points clearer. Never forget your listeners. Don’t talk over their heads and don’t talk down to them. Respect your listeners. They will enjoy your thoughtfulness.

Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your listeners and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your listeners.

If you follow the simple things, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not confident yet. Give it a try and see what happens.
