《风雨哈佛路》‖Dream, but don't sleep.
莉丝·默里 (Liz Murray) 是一位美国励志演讲者 (a motivational speaker)。并将鼓舞人心的经历写入自传——《风雨哈佛路》(Breaking Night: A Memoir of Forgiveness,Survival, and My Journey from Homeless to Harvard)。
影片介绍了一位生长在纽约的女孩莉斯（Liz）经历人生的艰辛和辛酸，凭借自己的努力，最终走进了最高学府的经历。
这部影片告诉我们：即便陷入绝望，无论发生过什么，你依旧要为你的生活而用尽全力去奋斗。
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
上帝使我能够冷静地接受不可改变的，能够有勇气改变可以改变的，并且让我知道如何区分什么是可以改变的，什么是不可以改变的。
In the years ahead of me, I learned that the world is actually filled with people ready to tell you how likely something is, and what it means to be realistic. But what I have also learned is that no one, no one truly knows what is possible until they go and do it.
在过去的这些年里，我学会了在这个世上，很多人乐意告诉你事情的发展轨迹，告诉你什么是现实。但同时我也学会了，没有人，没有一个人真真正正地知道人生的可能性，除非他们抬脚向前走。
Life has a way of doing that; one minute everything makes sense, the next, things change. People get sick.
生命有自己运行的规律。上一秒，一切都在情理之中。但下一秒，变化接踵而来。
Many nights, I longed for home. But it occurred to me as I struggled for a feeling of comfort and safety.
有许多日日夜夜，思家的情绪将我包围。但只有在我想要感到自在和安全的时候，我才会有想家的渴望。
Did you ever feel sorry for yourself?--that had always been my life and I really——I feel that I got lucky,because any sensive security was pulled out so I was forced to look forward.
我为什么要觉得可怜，这就是我的生活。我甚至要感谢它，它让我在任何情况下都必须往前走。我没有退路，我只能不停地努力向前走。
I‘d spent so many days, weeks, months, and years thinking about doing things with my life, and now I wanted to know, if I committed to a goal and woke up every single day working hard at it, could I change my life?
在多少个四季轮回里，我按部就班地想着、做着我的人生要求我想、我做的事情。现在，我想知道，如果我致力于完成一个目标，醒着的每时每刻都在为它奋斗，我可以改变我的人生吗？
On one side of the wall there was society, and on the other side there was me, us, the people in the place I come from. Separate.
在墙的一边是社会，另一边是我，我们和来自社会底层的人。我们和这个社会格格不入。
Homeless person or business person, doctor or teacher, whatever your background may be, the same holds true for each of us: life takes on the meaning that you give it.
不管你的背景是什么，流浪者或商人，医生或老师，对我们每个人而言道理都一样——人生的意义需要你来赋予。
Instead, what I was beginning to understand was that however things unfolded from here on, whatever the next chapter was, my life could never be the sum of one circumstance. It would be determined, as it had always been, by my willingness to put one foot in front of the other, moving forward, come what may.
然而，我开始明白，不管面前我的遭遇是什么，我的明天会怎样，我的人生绝不可能因为一个境况而定下结论。它只会一如始终地决定于我的意愿，决定于我的前进，一步一个脚印，不管未来会如何。
人生不息，奋斗不止。年轻的我们，面对困难与失败，当跌到尘埃时，你一定要弄清楚怎么生活，不要畏惧风霜。请不要闭眼，机会就在下一秒出现。
毕竟，一生很短，人生不息，奋斗不止！
