【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.

［翻轉視界 8］逃離禁錮之地：離開北韓我學會自由與憐憫
　
“If you don't know the words, that means you don't understand the concept, and therefore, you don't even realize that concept is even a possibility.” —— human rights activist Yeonmi Park。
　
「如果你不知道某些詞彙，那就意味著你並不了解某些概念，因此你也不會意識到，那些概念可以是一種可能。」——人權鬥士朴延美
　
對出逃前的她而言，自由與溫飽是很奢侈的理念，更無法了解「愛」的全貌。當我們無法得知世界發生了什麼，無法想像那超越自身認知的世界，我們便無法真正地同理他人。今天我想邀請大家，以不同的角度，重新感受自由、溫飽與愛的可貴。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
I was born in 1993 in the northern part of North Korea, in a town called Hyesan, which is on the border with China. I had loving parents and one older sister. Before I was even 10 years old, my father was sent to a labor camp for engaging in illegal trading. Now, by "illegal trading" -- he was selling clogs, sugar, rice and later copper to feed us. In 2007, my sister and I decided to escape. She was 16 years old, and I was 13 years old.
　
1. on the border with 鄰近邊界
2. labor camp 勞改營
3. illegal trading 非法的交易
　
１９９３年我出生在北韓的北部，一個名叫惠山的小鎮，鄰近中國邊界。我有愛我的父母與一位姐姐。在我１０歲大的時候，父親就被送去勞改營，因為他非法買賣一些東西。所謂的非法買賣，其實他是賣一些木鞋、糖、米，之後還賣了銅，只為了餵飽我們。２００７年，姐姐和我決定逃跑。她當時１６歲，而我１３歲。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
I need you to understand what the word "escape" means in the context of North Korea. We were all starving, and hunger means death in North Korea. So it was the only option for us. I didn't even understand the concept of escape, but I could see the lights from China at night, and I wondered if I go where the light is, I might be able to find a bowl of rice. It's not like we had a grand plan or maps. We did not know anything about what was going to happen. Imagine your apartment building caught fire. I mean, what would you do? Would you stay there to be burned, or would you jump off out of the window and see what happens? That's what we did. We jumped out of the house instead of the fire.
　
4. in the context of 在⋯⋯的情境中
5. concept 概念；觀念；思想
6. a grand plan 一個遠大的計畫
7. catch fire 著火
　
你們要知道，「逃跑」這兩字在北韓意味著什麼。我們天天挨餓，而飢餓在北韓意味著死亡。所以逃跑是我們唯一的選擇。我當時還不了解逃跑是什麼意思，但晚上我能看見中國那邊的燈光，我想著如果我能到有光的地方，也許就能找到一碗飯。我們沒有什麼遠大的計畫或地圖。我們完全不知道，接下來會發生什麼事。想像一下，你的公寓失火了，你會怎麼辦？你會坐以待斃，還是跳窗然後再看著辦？我們就是那樣。我們從大樓上跳了下來， 而不是等火燒上來。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
North Korea is unimaginable. It's very hard for me when people ask me what it feels like to live there. To be honest, I tell you: you can't even imagine it. The words in any language can't describe, because it's a totally different planet, as you cannot imagine your life on Mars right now. For example, the word "love" has only one meaning: love for the Dear Leader. There's no concept of romantic love in North Korea. And if you don't know the words, that means you don't understand the concept, and therefore, you don't even realize that concept is even a possibility.
　
8. unimaginable 無法想像
9. no concept of... 沒有⋯的概念
10. romantic love 浪漫愛
　
北韓是難以想像的。對我來說，要回答住在北韓是什麼感覺，非常困難。老實說，我可以告訴各位——你無從想像。沒有任何語言可以描述，因為那是個截然不同的星球，就像你現在無法想像自己在火星上的生活一樣。比如說，「愛」只有一個意思：愛偉大的領袖。在北韓沒有那種浪漫之愛的概念。如果你不知道某些詞彙，那就意味著你並不了解某些概念，因此你也不會意識到，那些概念可以是一種可能。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Let me give you another example. Growing up in North Korea, we truly believed that our Dear Leader is an almighty god who can even read my thoughts. I was even afraid to think in North Korea. We are told that he's starving for us, and he's working tirelessly for us, and my heart just broke for him. When I escaped to South Korea, people told me that he was actually a dictator, he had cars, many, many resorts, and he had an ultraluxurious life. And then I remember looking at a picture of him, realizing for the first time that he is the largest guy in the picture. And it hit me. Finally, I realized he wasn't starving. But I was never able to see that before, until someone told me that he was fat.
　
11. an almighty god 一個全能的神
12. tirelessly 不屈不撓地；堅忍地
13. a dictator 獨裁者
14. it hit me 突然想到、意識到 
15. resort 度假地（此處係指北韓獨裁者有很多度假別墅）
16. ultraluxurious 極其奢華的
17. have a…life 過著⋯⋯的生活
　
讓我再舉一個例子。在北韓長大，我們真心相信我們偉大的領袖是全能的神，他甚至能看穿我在想什麼。我在北韓甚至不敢思考。我們聽說他為我們挨餓、不眠不休地為我們工作，而我為此感到心痛。我逃到南韓後，有人跟我說他其實是獨裁者，他有很多車、很多很多渡假別墅，他的生活極為奢華。我記得自己看著一張有他的照片，第一次意識到他是照片裡體型最大的那個。這件事讓我大受打擊。那時我才終於了解，他沒有挨餓。但我以前總無法看清這些，直到有人跟我說他很胖，我才恍然大悟。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Really, someone had to teach me that he was fat. If you have never practiced critical thinking, then you simply see what you're told to see. The biggest question also people ask me is: "Why is there no revolution inside North Korea? Are we dumb? Why is there no revolution for 70 years of this oppression?" And I say: If you don't know you're a slave, if you don't know you're isolated or oppressed, how do you fight to be free? I mean, if you know you're isolated, that means you are not isolated. Not knowing is the true definition of isolation, and that's why I never knew I was isolated when I was in North Korea. I literally thought I was in the center of the universe.
　
18. critical thinking 批判性思考
19. revolution 革命
20. dumb 愚蠢的*
21. oppression 壓迫；壓制；欺壓
22. isolated and oppressed 與世隔絕的與被壓迫的
　
真的，要有人教我，他這樣叫做胖。如果你沒學過批判性思考，你看到的就只會是別人跟你說的。其他人對我提出的大哉問還有：「為何北韓沒有革命？我們傻嗎？為何歷經７０年的壓迫，卻沒人發動革命？」我回答：「如果你不知道自己是奴隸，不知道自己被與世隔絕、壓迫，你要如何為自由而戰？我的意思是，如果你知道自己被與世隔絕，那就表示你並非真的與世隔絕。與世隔絕的真正定義是無知，所以我從不知道，在北韓的我與世隔絕。我真的以為我們是宇宙的中心。

*dumb: https://bit.ly/3fG5XOk
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
So here is my idea worth spreading: a lot of people think humans inherently know what is right and wrong, the difference between justice and injustice, what we deserve and we don't deserve. I tell them: BS. Everything, everything must be taught, including compassion. If I see someone dying on the street right now, I will do anything to save that person. But when I was in North Korea, I saw people dying and dead on the streets. I felt nothing. Not because I'm a psychopath, but because I never learned the concept of compassion. Only, I felt compassion, empathy and sympathy in my heart after I learned the word "compassion" and the concept, and I feel them now.
　
23. inherently 與生俱來地
24. justice and injustice 正義與不義
25. psychopath 精神病患者
26. compassion, empathy and sympathy 憐憫、同理與同情*
　
我覺得值得分享的想法是：很多人以為，人類生來就能分辨是非對錯，懂得正義與邪惡的差別，我們值得被怎樣對待。我跟他們說：放屁。所有的事，所有的事都得經過教導，包含憐憫。如果我現在看見有人在路邊奄奄一息，我會不顧一切來救他。但我在北韓的時候，會眼睜睜看著有人橫死街頭，卻沒有任何感覺。並非因為我是心理病態，而是我從未學過憐憫的概念。只有在我的內心感受到憐憫、同理與同情，我才學會「憐憫」一詞與其概念，而如今我已能感受到這些。
　
*compassion: a strong feeling of sympathy and sadness for the suffering or bad luck of others and a wish to help them

empathy: the ability to share someone else's feelings or experiences by imagining what it would be like to be in that person's situation

sympathy: (an expression of) understanding and care for someone else's suffering
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Now I live in the United States as a free person.
　
現在我以自由人的身分住在美國。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
And recently, the leader of the free country, our President Trump, met with my former god. And he decided human rights is not important enough to include in his agendas, and he did not talk about it. And it scares me. We live in a world right now where a dictator can be praised for executing his uncle, for killing his half brother, killing thousands of North Koreans. And that was worthy of praise. And also it made me think: perhaps we all need to be taught something new about freedom now. Freedom is fragile. I don't want to alarm you, but it is. It only took three generations to make North Korea into George Orwell's "1984." It took only three generations. If we don't fight for human rights for the people who are oppressed right now who don't have a voice, as free people here, who will fight for us when we are not free? Machines? Animals? I don't know.
　
27. agenda 議程
28. be praised for 因⋯⋯獲得讚揚
29. execute (v.) 處決
30. worthy of sth 適合某物或具有某物的特徵
31. fragile 脆弱
　
最近，自由國度的領袖，我們的川普總統，和我以前的神會面。他認定，人權沒那麼重要，不需排進議程中，所以對此他隻字不提。這嚇壞我了。我們竟身在一個獨裁者處決伯父還能獲得讚揚的世界裡，他殺害同父異母的哥哥、殺害成千上萬的北韓人民，竟還能得到讚揚。這不禁使我開始思考，也許我們現在都要學習自由的新涵義。自由很脆弱。我不想嚇你，但事實如此。短短三個世代，就讓北韓淪為喬治．歐威爾筆下的《１９８４》。只花了三個世代。如果我們不為人權而戰，不為受壓迫、不為無法發聲的人而戰，當身為自由人的我們不自由時，誰還願意為我們而戰？機器嗎？動物嗎？我不知道。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
I think it's wonderful that we care about climate change, animal rights, gender equality, all of these things. The fact that we care about animals' rights, that means that's how beautiful our heart is, that we care about someone who cannot speak for themselves. And North Koreans right now cannot speak for themselves. They don't have internet in the 21st century. We don't have electricity, and it is the darkest place on earth right now. Now I want to say something to my fellow North Koreans who are living in that darkness. They might not believe this, but I want to tell them that an alternative life is possible. Be free.
　
32. speak for oneself 為某人發聲
33. alternative life 另一種生活
　
我覺得我們能關心氣候變遷、動物權益、性別平等諸如此類之事，真的很美好。因為，我們關心動物權益，就代表了我們的心地有多善良，也代表我們關心無法為自己發聲的對象。北韓人民現在無法為自己發聲。身處２１世紀的他們，沒有網路可用。我們沒有電，那裡是當今地球上最暗的地方。現在我想告訴那些生活在北韓黑暗中的同胞。也許他們不會相信我，但我想告訴他們，生命仍有其他可能——意即自由的生活。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
From my experience, literally anything is possible. I was bought, I was sold as a slave. But now I'm here, and that is why I believe in miracles. The one thing that I learned from history is that nothing is forever in this world. And that is why we have every reason to be hopeful. Thank you.
　
34. slave 奴隸
35. miracle 奇蹟
　
就我的經驗，真的什麼事都有可能發生。我被人買走，賣給別人當奴隸。但我現在在這裡，這也就是為什麼我相信奇蹟。我從歷史上學到的一件事，就是世上沒有什麼是永恆的。而這也是我們無論如何都能懷有希望的原因。謝謝大家。

Love doesn't need to be small and small, don't care about
　
On that day, I was at my girlfriend's house, and my brother called me on line and said, " brother, dad ~~ It's almost gone, do you want to watch him last side :" in Taipei, I actually had it. Had a feeling, but not so fast.
　
"I'll be right back, I want to go home to see his last side"
　
When I came back to tainan by car, it was already 4 in the morning, and I also knew that my dad left around 12 am, that day was Saturday morning.
　
When I came home, I did not feel sad or sad, but just some feelings, the reason that my brother and my mother did not accept what my father did to the family.
　
Life will go through " death and death I know very well that during this time of his father's illness, his change and growth. In fact, I talked to him on that day, and after talking to him about what he hadn't
　
I realize that not everyone can agree with, and accept someone who has hurt you in the past.
　
There are 4 important things in life "Health, relationship, money and career, life's meaning"
　
I don't know how to have a good relationship with my dad. In Short, " I haven't felt anything called " Father "" I only know that there is a man at home, he will hit my mother, hit me and beat my brother. With my sister, and I want to call his father, I don't understand why this man has such power as if he is the God of the family. We can't fight or change anything.
　
Until I walk on the journey of life, meet my life instructor, learn who I am, and realize what I am.
　
After my dad had lung cancer, maybe the universe gave us the opportunity to get along with him. Although I didn't talk to him at the hospital time, I know that the man in front of me will hit me before. Men are not the same.
　
He's old, sick and lonely.
　
No one really understands him, he doesn't know how to be a good father's role until that day he said "I'm happy to get a son again". I think, he just wants to be good and do his last time when The role of a good dad.
　
Today the etiquette artist told me " no one likes death I agree, but don't accept, many people don't like death, because he's afraid of losing everything, what will you be afraid of when you have nothing to lose? Seeing my dad sleeping in bed and seeing him last side, I just feel " oh dad ~~ fell asleep?" not the same is that he fell asleep under the arrangement of the universe, to go to the stars of the day.
　
My Father's farewell office was on October 7, just on the day of the 7TH CHUNG FESTIVAL FESTIVAL. The Etiquette Master said it was a very good day. Our family also made this day to worship our ancestors, perhaps the father's arrangement. It is quite Time to complete everything in 10 days, and we can go smoothly with him on his last journey.
　
I don't like "practice and practice it feels like these things are very painful, but the journey is mixed and sad. My mom said to me," I can't let it go, I think a lot at home alone at night I remember, one time Coordinate the family of parents. I've been talking to them for 4 hours. I know I don't have the right to teach my parents what, and I am a teacher, I know one thing " you can not agree, you can not want to face it, but you have to accept that
　
"I will always be your son, I hope you come to teach me how to get along with people who meet every day" and I know you can't do it, I can only try to do the best.
　
In the past, my home was " complete today I became a " single parent family and in the future maybe i will be an " Orphan I only feel the love of my father in a very short time.
　
And " love doesn't need to be divided into size, no need to care about the length of time even if
　
These 4 hours will be the most meaningful time of my life
　
　
PS: finally i want to say to you after reading the article," we don't know how long life is, I don't know if others will accompany you to the end. When you see the opportunity, go and try it. The real thing to say to him is perhaps the most meaningful day of your life."
　
　
Ps2: I did not notice, any friends came to participate in the farewell style. The reason is actually very simple. I think you are happy old fish when you see me, and now mine is full of awkward... haha. I want to finish my last homework with my dad low-key.
　
　
Ps3: I am also clear that many people who care about me will care about my situation, of course this is your own choice, of course it is your own choice, if you want to come visit me, see the people of my family, I use open heart, The farewell style will be at noon on October 7 at 268 National Road, Tainan City, Tainan City. Thank you.
