【國立臺灣大學109學年度畢業典禮 致詞代表 心理學系林世峰】
Student Address, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
Shih-Feng Lin from the Department of Psychology
.
校長、各位貴賓、師長,親愛的家長、同學、畢業生,還有所有螢幕前的觀眾朋友,大家好!我是臺大畢業生代表,心理學系四年級的林世峰。
四年來,真的很難忘,我們同學一起在新生書院互加好友,在醉月湖找校鵝,還到舟山路上觀察大笨鳥的慢動作,又騎腳踏車到溫州街裝文青,到118巷當吃貨。多希望一切歲月靜好,但新冠肺炎疫情揮之不去,年輕生命殞落的悲劇突然到來,讓我們成為最迷惘的一屆,也是最獨特的一屆。
學校的活動臨時停辦,線上課程堆積如山,畢業舞會、椰林辦桌又被忍痛取消,最後甚至連實體畢業典禮和謝師宴也成為永遠的遺憾。我有朋友被迫放棄出國交換的機會,而我夢寐以求的芬蘭教育見習也無法成行。計畫被打亂、不安變常態,我們卻又將面臨更多挑戰。
一天,我在溫州街二手書店翻到詹姆斯.卡斯的一句話,震撼了我。這位哲學家將人類活動分為兩種遊戲,他說:「有限遊戲以取勝為目的,無限遊戲以延續遊戲為目的。」當下我驚覺,或許求學路上感到煎熬,就是因為我們被困在有限的遊戲中。有限的學習是一場短跑,只是一種手段,是為了勝過別人來證明自己,而拼命地刷新履歷、獲得標籤。
我回想起大三的一晚,我陪高三的學弟妹們為大考奮戰,原本想說幫忙解題而已,但最後他們卻對我說 :「學長,我讀書感覺好空、好累、好悶……」、「學長,我學這些到底為了什麼……」
是啊!為了考試而讀書、為了標籤而學習,不問意義與價值,讓我們陷入空虛、疲憊與痛苦。於是,我和一群來自超過二十個不同科系的夥伴創立了「臺大青鳥教育社」,有來自超過五所大學甚至香港、加拿大的大學生,一起走進的社區、偏鄉引導國高中生探索學習意義和自我價值,我們一起描繪活用所學、開展生涯的美好未來。
驀然回首,當初那麼想到芬蘭,不就是為了回台灣實現讓學習更有意義的理想嗎?疫情是一位無形的嚴師,教導我們在變動中珍惜彼此,在家園築夢踏實,更讓我們重新發現,學習是一場無限的壯遊,本身就是一種目的,是為了提升自己來造福他人,而自在地探索未知、創造價值。
經過師生共同努力,今天的臺大更重視心輔資源,「防疫一號」、「線上杜鵑花節」、「未來大學」,都讓我們這最迷惘的一屆,不僅成為了最獨特的一屆,更將蛻變為最堅韌、最覺醒的一屆。無論如何我們堅信,來到生命的必有意義,即使畢業了、即使停課了,臺大人都將繼續沉思、繼續學習,在人生的無限遊戲,繼續締造壯舉,讓傅鐘在心裡迴響起,永不止息!
一路上感謝師長、同學,感謝親友、爸爸媽媽及阿公阿嬤。感謝臺大砥礪我們脫胎換骨。期許自己並祝福各位同學,艱難時刻盡己所能,抱持無限思維活學活用,超越自我、同理他人,我們一起創造共好的故事、貢獻宇宙的精神!我是林世峰,畢業後我們一起勇敢!謝謝大家!

President Kuan, distinguished guests, professors, parents, graduates, and friends on the screen, Hi! I am the valedictorian on behalf of graduates. I am Lin, Shih-Feng from the Department of Psychology.
The past transient four years brought me lasting remembrance. We made friends with classmates at Orientation Camp, searched for geese at Drunken Moon Lake, watched languid birds, Malayan Night Heron, on Zhoushan Road, biked to Wenzhou Street like a hipster and took a bite at the Lane 118. Although I dream that serene days live on, Covid-19 pandemic and the tragic loss of young lives suddenly happened. Hence, we have become the most puzzled and unique graduating class of 2021.
The events on campus were abruptly suspended. Online courses were augmented. The graduation prom and the feast at Palm Boulevard were cancelled. Even the onsite graduation ceremony and the banquet for thanking professors have become impossible but eternal regrets. One of my friends was forced to relinquish the opportunity to exchange abroad. And I could not fulfill my internship program of which I dream in Finland. Facing the disruption of planning and uncertainty as normalcy, we meet myriad challenges.
One day, I read a sentence written by James Carse in a second-hand bookstore on Wenzhou Street. To my astonishment, the philosopher categorizes human activities as two kinds of games. He said that "a finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play.” All of a sudden, I realized that my struggling study arises from the trap of finite game. The limited learning like a sprint aims to prove superiority as means that we spare no effort to renew resume and acquire labels.
Reflecting back on one evening in my junior year, I accompanied third graders of high school who strived to prepare university entrance exam. I thought I could help answer their questions but eventually they said to me that “I felt aimless, exhausted, and suffocated…"“What is the purpose for learning indeed…?”
Right. Studying for exams and labels without inquiring into meaning and value could ensnare us within emptiness, exhaustion and pains. Therefore, I found NTU Avizure Education Club in partnership with peers from more than 20 departments. Students from over five universities including those from Hong Kong and Canada enter the community and guide middle and high schoolers to explore the meaning of learning and the value of self through application of what we have learned, leading to promising careers in the future.
While viewing the past and thinking of Finland, wasn’t it the ideal that I wish to accomplish after return to make learning more meaningful? The pandemic is an invisible stern teacher who teaches us to cherish each other in times of turmoil, to pursue dreams step by step in homeland, and to discover again. Learning is infinite grand journey embodied in a purpose, improving oneself to benefit others, exploring unknown, and creating value.
With joint endeavors of faculty and students, National Taiwan University today draws more attention to counseling resources. The Device of Epidemic Prevention No. 1, Azalea Festival online, and the University of Future project allow us as the most puzzled class to transform into the most unique and perseverant class with self-awareness. We firmly believe that anything that brings to the life gives meaning. Regardless of gradation and end of class, members of NTU would continue to consider and learn as well as proceed to accomplish in the infinite game of life. And the resonance of ringing the Full Bell in our mind never ceases.
I would like to extend my gratitude to professors, fellow classmates, family, friends, parents and grandparents in my path. Thank National Taiwan University for urging us to change. I expect each student and myself to transcend ourselves and to be compassionate toward others as active learners during trying times. We together create stories of common good and embrace the spirit to contribute to the universe. I am Lin, Shih-Feng. We are brave upon graduation. Thank you all.

10 ข้อ ถนอมความรัก
---
1. เป็นเพื่อนที่รักกัน:
หากลองสังเกตดู เราผิดใจกับเพื่อนน้อยกว่าคนรัก แถมยังคืนดีง่ายกว่า นั่นเป็นเพราะว่าเรามักคาดหวังกับคนรักมากกว่าเพื่อน กระนั้น-ความสวยงามของคนรักมีอยู่ว่ายิ่งนานวันไป ความหวานจะค่อยๆ จางลงกลายเป็นความผูกพัน เหมือนเพื่อนสนิทที่ "รู้กัน" นั่นคือข้อดี เพราะเมื่อเป็นเพื่อนกันแล้วเราจะคาดหวังน้อยลง หายโกรธง่ายขึ้น แต่เพื่อนคนนี้สำคัญกว่าคนอื่น เพราะเขาคือ "เพื่อนชีวิต"
...Continue Reading10 items to take care of love.
---
1. Be friends who love each other:
If you notice, we are less wrong with friends, love, and it's easier to return. That's because we always expect more than friends. - the beauty of lovers are that the longer the more days, sweetness will slowly fade into bonding like Best friends who " know " is the good thing because when we are friends, we will expect less. It's easier to get angry. But this friend is more important than others because they are " life friend "
...
2. Love each other, not to compete with each other. Do good:
Some people like to note that between themselves and love "do good things" but in the area of love is not the race track. Relationships are available and swap around. When we often see their goodness. See the goodness of the goodness. The other one may be me. I can overlook the good things that they do because in that moment we are blind from anger.
...
3. sorry and thank you:
Two simple words, but often fade away when we are in a relationship for a long time. Apology seems to fall out of the mouth. Sometimes I know that you are wrong for lovers. There is no dignity. Sorry will help heal the wound instead of letting go of chronic wound. It's difficult to heal. Thank you is another love. It shows that we are important and good things that they give. These two magic spells often have a smooth relationship.
...
4. Let the irritability go away with the night:
A good relationship is to find a way to get back, not to let one side. Many elders always teach that no matter what happens, no matter who is wrong or right. When both fall asleep. One morning should fade away and find a way. Good night. Start a new story with sunrise.
...
5. Be a power to each other:
We feel good when we are near, always a " dream support " listen to anyone. Don't rush to the dream, but encourage us to think " for recharge each other, not weaken each other. When we are close, we are close, there is powerful. We will want to tell him stories.
...
6. Be a sponge to suffer:
Apart from recharging positive, good lovers often absorb negative power from the other's mind. Listening without judgement. Open the space for the other to speak all. Finally he may show fragile or Your own mistakes should be the safest area in the world. Even if the whole world doesn't understand, there is one person who is ready to understand and listen.
...
Lol laugh at small frustrating:
People are often irritated with repeated habits that often annoy. Sometimes it's very small things. Some couples are frustrated that the other people don't close the lid from honey. Sometimes it's a big. If it's possible, try to laugh at these small things and think about it. There is no difference in his corner. We may be born to close the toothpaste cover for him. He was born to keep our favorite mug that we have to be together like to be together like this. But if you can think like this. Don't have to be upset with small things.
...
8. sit in time machine:
Let's go back to talk about when we just know each other. Open old photos, play, pick up the same gift to dusting the house. Pick up the book that we used to read again. These conversations help the relationship not get old by time. In fact, we are. We have good memories together. Let's think back.
...
9. Be part of each other's dreams:
Even if we are not in with our lovers. Whether it's running, listening to music, taking photos, cooking, snorkeling, cuddle, etc. We can join what our lovers are too. It's a lot of time together. In new activities, of course he is part of our crazy activities too.
...
10. Don't expect happiness:
There is a life of love with the angle. This is part of life lessons that will give us the hope, no freedom. Practice our mind to know how to know how to forgive, have mercy, reduce ego to admit that no one is ours and we rely on. Not everything. If you can look at love with glasses like this, we can live with some unbeautiful moments of love. This is the opportunity to practice the mind. Learn suffering from the most, which may be the most painful or the most angry. But this is The best lesson like this. Bad times will be one of life. If both of the smooth mind, they can go through the relationship without traumatized. When suffering passes, happiness will come back. Walking around like this as usual
...
All of these are not easy, and it is not " technique " if it is " practice " that people in love, because the relationship is not different from anything else in the world. There are beautiful and the cuddle ugly. Knowing each other well means seeing around the side.
Love always comes with responsibility and mental duty. Love is always caused by two people. It may start with one person. But when there is no solution. That means both of them can't pass the exam. It's not passed. It's not wrong. What is everyone on the path of learning to love, which couples are always through their mind purifying together.
In some dimensions, being together may not be happier than being alone, but in some dimensions, being together makes you feel more meaning. The meaning is because we are not alone.
Not every love is worth keeping, but for love worth keeping and neglected is a shame.
On the day that we feel "love each other" is not the last day if it's just the first day of the beginning to learn to love that person on the day he is not cute either. He has to learn to love us on the day
I have passed this story again and again. Then I said "love each other" but even then we didn't care about this word.
Because it's a single flesh with two people's lives.Translated
