Community member Sandy Weiner shared some thoughts after watching journalist Joshua Prager’s TED Talk, “In search of the man who broke my neck.”
社区成员桑迪·韦纳在观看了约书亚·普拉格的TED演讲《寻找那个折断我脖子的人》后，写下了这段话：
“这个演讲在许多层面都触动了我。勇气、自我反思、不接受现状、不甘于以受害者的身份度过一生，以及约书亚尽管遭遇了那场令他高位截瘫的可怕事故，却依然能够继续前行、成就非凡的能力。但真正打动我的是这句话：‘重要的不是发生在我们身上的事，而是我们选择如何回应所发生的事。’危机是检验人品的最佳试金石。约书亚的品格正是一个超越过往、不断升华之人的最好证明。”
