期末感言
Reflections at the End of the Semester

劉親智文 9歲 育良小學三年級1999年6月4日作
By Qin Zhi Lau, age 9, third grader at Instilling Goodness Elementary School, on June 4, 1999

一個七十多日的學期已經完成了,我要提醒自己看看我有沒有認真學習。我很謝謝老師、朋友、父母教導我,幫助我,所以我可以慢慢進步,變成好學生。老師有八恩:

一者教學生;不論他乖不乖。
二者幫助每一個學生。
三者晝夜不休息。
四者布施智慧如太陽,破學生的無明。
五者是大丈夫。
六者幫助學生成功。
七者人人佩服。
八者普遍智慧利益眾生。

這八恩是老師所有的,所以我們佩服他。我作一首偈頌送給老師:

老師恩德無數億,利我利他不自利;
深入一切善智慧,我要好好多學習。

我現在很貪心:貪睡、貪吃、貪玩,我一定要改正,好好學習,背經,做功課。我希望可以學會注音、〈史記〉、〈弟子規〉,多看一點中文書;學別的語言如:梵語、西班牙語、馬來語、閩南話、廣東話、泰文等等,只是中文要先學好。我作詩曰:

云何報答老師恩?學習學習學中文;
我要好好用功學,可以變成大聖人。

導師評語:

說了能做真丈夫,聖人從小不怕苦;
聰明好學有志氣,老師拜你為師父。


A semester of more than 90 days is now over, and I must remind myself to check if I have really studied hard. I am really thankful to my teachers, friends, and parents, who have taught me and helped me so that I can slowly improve and become a good student.

Teachers manifest eight kinds of kindness:

1. They teach a student even if he doesn't behave.
2. They help every student.
3. Day and night they do not rest.
4. They give their wisdom like the sun, breaking through the students' ignorance.
5. They are great heroes.
6. They help every student to be successful in his or her studies.
7. Everyone respects the teachers.
8. Their wisdom benefits living beings everywhere.

These are a teacher's eight kinds of kindness. It is because of this that we respect them. I have made a poem for my teacher:

The teacher's virtue is great indeed.
Benefiting others, he is not selfish.
He understands all good wisdom.
I must really study harder.

Right now I am very greedy, I am most greedy for sleep, food, and play, so I must change my ways and study more, memorize sutras, and do homework. I hope I can study more of: Chinese phonetic symbols, The Records of the Historian (a classic), and the Standards for Students (Note: Rules for being a student), and read more Chinese books. I would also like to learn other languages, such as: Sanskrit, Spanish, Malay, Taiwanese, Cantonese, Thai, etc., but I have to finish learning Chinese first. I have composed a poem:

Study, study, study Chinese.
How do we repay the teacher's kindness?
We have to really study hard.
In the future we can be great sage

*    *    *

Comments from the teacher: If you can put your words into practice, you will be a real hero. The sages did not fear suffering from the time they were young. You are intelligent, love to learn, and full of resolve. I bow to you as my teacher.
