Today I thought at the beginning of class we'd mention just a couple of little things that are going on,
今天我思考了一下我们在每堂课开始提到的话题都只是生活中的琐事
that are relevant to how we behave and what we do, even though they might seem very tangential
即使看起来离题万里但它们也和我们的表现及行为有关
And I know professors,I always wander and I'm very guilty of sometimes starting out on a tangent and wondering 10 minutes later,
我了解教授 我时常因为自己花10分钟的时间在课堂开始时讲一些不相关的东西而感到愧疚
"Where am I How'd I get from here to there"
"我说到哪里了？怎么扯到这个话题的"
One of the things that we see as a good quality is generosity in here, and the German for that is Freigebigkeit
但是在这一点上 有一个我们觉得很好的品质就是宽容,在德语里面这个词是Freigebigkeit
Sometimes I write words in other languages because they're more meaningful to me
有时候我会用其他语言表达 因为它们看起来更有意义
Gaben means "to give" and free, of course, took so to give freely
Gaben的意思是免费给予 当然 无偿给予
And generosity, we often don't think of the meaning of the words means liberality in spirit or act
慷慨 我们经常思考这个词语的含义 它的意思是在行为上或者思想上慷慨大方
And what made me think about that is I was checking my e-mail this morning and we get our little news tips from campus and stuff,
我早晨查看电子邮件的时候想到了这个事情 我们在校园里或者其他地方上得到新八卦
and there is a blood drive this week
这周发生了车祸
And, you know, some of those things, when you have an opportunity, you know, you should think this ties into who we are, ties into people
而且 要知道 如果你有机会的话 你该思考一下 有些事情和你本人有关 和周围的人有关
A very small percentage of people give blood
只有很少一部分人会献血
Giving blood or pheresis, whatever you want to do
献血还是用血 怎样都行
My younger daughter always said, "Well, I only weigh 105 I can't give "
我的小女儿总是说 我才105磅 我不能献血
And I said, "Yeah, someday " But, you know, a very small percentage of people give
我会说 "是啊 等再重一点吧" 但要知道 只有很少的人献血
It's — this is one of the good things I do, I have like enough — I look like a drugger or something
这是我做过的好事之一 我喜欢这样做 尽管我看起来像吸过毒什么的
I usually give like 35 gallons
但是我通常会献血35加仑
