Stephen W. Hawking
不知道大家看了這張照片有什麼感想嗎？
這是一個好朋友去倫敦自助旅行時，巧遇到有名的物理學學家-史蒂芬霍金（Stephen W. Hawking）博士。
當我收到這張照片時，我有很大很大的感動與衝擊。驚覺到的是，自己習以為常的呼吸、言語交談辯證、甚至是『生命』…其實都沒有想像中那麼地『理所當然』。常常會抱怨自己不夠聰明、思考不夠縝密、個性不夠沉穩….這或許是因為我有著比他更多的感官去接觸世界，有更多的行動力去反應世界。但是，卻少了細細傾聽世界脈動的那份寧靜，少了先自我消化而後一點一滴包含著省思所表現出的氣度。也常常覺得自己長得不漂亮、五官不夠明顯、腿部曲線不夠完美…其實忘了我已經比很多人擁有更多了……
台積電董事長張忠謀先生曾說過：【多想一二】。他說人生不如意之事十之八九，但是如果可以多去體會那剩下的一二，也就會少了很多的憂心與抱怨了。
更何況我所擁有的可能不只一二呢！！！
Stephen W. Hawking (1942 - ) is a British theoretical physicist. Because he has Lou Gehrig’s disease (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; ALS), Hawking is confined to a wheelchair and is unable to speak without the aid of a computer voice synthesizer. However, despite his challenges, he has utilized his intelligence, knowledge and abilities to make remarkable contributions to the field of cosmology (the study of the universe as a whole... as well as things and systems found in it... such as the stars, black holes, solar systems and other celestial bodies and occurances). One such contribution was made in 1973 when Hawking discovered that black holes evaporate over time. Hawking has also written the book A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes (Bantam Books, 1992).
It’s clear Stephen Hawking hasn’t let the physical challenges in his life become obstacles to his interests, goals and the many things he’s capable of accomplishing. Hawking is highly respected and valued in the science field because of his discoveries, theories and other contributions... not because he happens to have a disability. By using a "can do" attitude and his many abilities, especially the abilities of his mind, Hawking is a great example of a Can Do who is making a huge difference in the world.
