今天我要谈的是：发现自己。

自然科学的发现始终伴随着人类文明的飞速发展。

It was by discovering the around us that human beings have been able to live a more sophisticated life.

诸康妮演讲：Discover yourself

However, as G.K. Chesterton once said “one may understand the cosmos, but never the ego, the self is more distance than any star.

然而，切斯特顿曾经说过：“人们可以了解宇宙, 但从来不了解自己，自我的距离远超过任何星辰的距离。”

Thus, a life is a journey of unrelenting offers to discover more of ourselves.

因此，生活是一个不屈不挠、努力发现自己的旅程。

When I was six, I constantly picture myself as an elegant and skilled pianist rendering Xiao Bang's nocturnal beautifully on the stage, receiving award and applause after my performance.

当我六岁时，就不断想象自己像一个优雅和娴熟的钢琴家，在舞台上演奏肖邦的优美的小夜曲，在演奏结束后收获着奖励和掌声

However, as I further my piano lessons, it was hard to be oblivious of my non-gifted skills.

可是，在随后的钢琴课上，我发现我并没有演奏钢琴的天赋。

Sometimes I couldn't help but have this feeling of despair, when I woke up to the reality and discover that my goal was unrealistic.

有时候，当我从梦中回到现实，发现自己的目标多么的不切实际，我忍不住感到绝望。

Brutal but real.

现实是残酷的。

It was the first time; I had discovered that I couldn't have it at all, when I was twelve.

12岁的时候，我第一次发现我不可能成为钢琴演奏家。

I thought the coolest job in the entire universe was to be a surgeon.

我曾经以为在全世界外科医生是最酷的工作，。

I spent hours and hours watching the drama Grey's Anatomy and couldn't help falling in love with the kind of live those doctor lead on the scream.

我一遍又一遍地观看情节剧《实习医生格蕾》，并不自觉地被那些尖叫的医生所吸引。

I was utterly mesmerized by the scalpel and all those fancy medical terms that use.

我完全被手术刀和那些花哨的医疗用语迷住了。
