6 林博士還身體力行,到復旦大學隨潘公凱教 授學習一星期,期間她應要求作畫,最終以 張愛玲名句「生命是一襲華美的袍」為靈感 畫出作品—紅袍少女走向陽光草地,象徵生 命充滿希望。作品被潘教授讚許為「全班最 年輕最浪漫的一幅畫」,獲得了第一。 愛護林博士的人,並非只有文藝名家。講座 結束前,林博士介紹支持自己多年的影迷會 「愛林泉」。二○二○年疫情期間,為了鼓 勵支持者,林博士特意「空降」到愛林泉的 對話群組,自此一直與粉絲們交談並鼓勵他 們,希望各人能做最好的自己。通過與愛林 泉的交流,林博士感受到愛的真義,是「越 付越有,越付越多」,不會平白消逝。 優雅的秘訣 一個人要怎樣才能成功和優雅?林博士總結 時指,在生活中時時都需要選擇,而她在人 生的轉捩點上,往往都作出了最好的選擇。 她的要訣是,只要自己決心選了一條路,就 會鍥而不捨努力走下去,把它變成最適合自 己的一條路。另一方面,亦要像「油麻菜籽」 般,在所到之處,都要想着落地生根,好好 做人做事,使自己在任何環境都能成長。此 外,還要追求美和愛,培養發現美的眼睛, 保持待人真誠,心中有愛,成為生活藝術 家。最後,林博士以其文章〈現在進行式〉 之結語來結束當天講座:「最快樂的時光永 遠是現在,未來還有更多的挑戰。」 Dr. Lin also stayed at Fudan University and was guided by Professor Pan Gongkai for a week. During her stay, she was asked to paint and eventually created a work inspired by Eileen Chang’s famous line, “Life is a beautiful robe”: a girl in a red robe walking toward a sunny grassland, symbolising a life full of hope. Professor Pan praised it as “the youngest and most romantic painting in the class,” and it won first place. Before ending the talk, she introduced a fan club, “AiLinQuan”, that has supported her for many years. To encourage her supporters during the pandemic, Dr. Lin surprisingly joined the club’s group chat in 2020, and since then she has continued chatting with and encouraging fans, hoping everyone can become the best version of themselves. Through her exchanges with the fan club, Dr. Lin came to understand the true meaning of love: “the more you give, the more it grows”, and it does not simply disappear. The Secret to Elegance How can a person achieve success and elegance? In her closing remarks, Dr. Lin said that in life, choices constantly need to be made, and she has managed to make what to her is the best choice at each turning point of her life. Her key principle is that once she has firmly chosen a path, she will persevere and work tirelessly to see it through, making it the best fit for herself. At the same time, people should be like “Rapeseed” able to take root wherever they go, do their best to live and work well so that they can grow in every environment. Pursuing beauty and love are also important. To become an artist of life, people should cultivate the eye for beauty, remain sincere with others, and keep love in their heart. Dr. Lin concluded the talk with the closing lines from her essay Present Continuous Tense: “The happiest time is always the present, and there are always challenges in the future.” 本場至善講座反應空前熱烈,吸引近三千名師生、校友及公眾人士參與。 This Excellence Talk Series received an enthusiastic response, attracting nearly 3,000 students, staff, alumni and members of the public.
