今天是好文分享环节。

祝大家假期愉快。

人出生以后，很多东西就已经决定了，那么一个人还能在多大程度上改变自己的命运呢？还是说，剧本从一开始就已经写好，不会再变了呢？

是英文版本，每段的中文翻译在英文版后面。

大家可以试着读一读英文版，并不是很难。

真的看不懂还能起到催眠效果。

今天的主人公是NBA 多伦多猛龙队球员：

My story begins in Brazzaville in the Republic of the Congo a world away from the fast-paced glamorous life now I live. Circumstances were so adverse that children like me were experiencing malnutrition and had to sell water on the streets to support ourselves and our families — but often it wasn’t enough. At one time I was being homeless without a bed food or clean water.

Then I made a vow to myself: “The way things are right now I need to go play basketball abroad. Until there is nothing else I can do I will never stop trying.”

我的故事开始于我的家乡，刚果共和国首都布拉柴维尔，那里与让人眼花缭乱的NBA世界天各一方。和身边很多孩子一样，我需要忍着饥饿在街上卖水以贴补家庭。还一度无家可归，无处可依，也没有食物和饮用水。

那时我向自己发了一个誓：“我一定要走出刚果，去打篮球。直到世界尽头，也不停止努力。”

On June 26 2008 I was selected as the Oklahoma Thunder’s 24th pick in that year’s NBA draft becoming the first player from the Republic of Congo to be selected in the draft. That was when I stepped into a totally different world began to live in my lifetime dream.

2008年6月26日NBA选秀，我在第24顺位被西雅图超音速（现俄克拉荷马雷霆）选中，成为了刚果共和国历史上第一位进入NBA选秀并被选中的球员。从这一天起，我踏入了一个和生我养我的地方完全不同的世界。我开始在我一生渴望的梦里生活。

Now I’m fighting in playoffs with Raptors as the top 1 team in Eastern Conference. We have won several wonderful games. Hope we can keep it for long and go as far as possible.

I may have genetic advantages as both my mother and my father played for national basketball teams. But I believe most of you didn’t have to go through the things I went through as a kid. I just want to say that never sit back and allow life to happen you always have to be the author of your own success embracing opportunities that arise from your hard work.

今年我和猛龙的队友们以常规赛东部第一的成绩进入季后赛，在前面的比赛中我们有着不俗的表现，希望我们可以延续好的状态，在季后赛中走的更远。

我也许比旁人多一点基因的优势。因为我的父母都曾是为国效力的篮球运动员。但我相信，你们中的大多数都不需要经历我的成长故事。我只是想告诉你们，不要呆坐着听从命运安排，你必须自己执笔才能书写自己想要的成功。要格外努力，然后拥抱随之而来的机会。
