Emanuel Duncan is a 19-year-old football coach at Lawrence Central High
School in Indianapolis. Duncan has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and isn’t
expected to live beyond his 20s. His story was profiled by Gregg Doyel in the
Indianapolis Star recently.
19歲少年Emanuel Duncan是印第安納波利斯Lawrence Central High School學校的足球
教練。Duncan患有裘馨氏肌肉萎縮症，並且被認為不會活超過20歲。他的故事近日曾在
Indianapolis Star早報的Gregg Doyel體育專欄被介紹過。
In that story, Duncan shared some of the items on his bucket list, things
that keep him motivated and fighting. He’s been to ESPN’s Bristol, Conn.,
campus and met Stephen A. Smith (but not Skip Bayless, because he doesn’t
like him). There’s one person Duncan hasn’t met yet, and hopes to soon.
在故事中，Duncan分享了他遺願清單的某些項目，以及讓他保持動力並持續奮鬥的事物。
他曾經前往ESPN見過名主持人Stephen A. Smith(但非Skip Bayless，因為他討厭這個人)
。但還有一個人是Duncan想早日面到而還沒見到的。
via Doyel’s feature in the Indianapolis Star:
“My bucket list is to meet LeBron,” he tells me. “That’s the one thing I
want to do. Meet LeBron James. That’s my role model. He inspires me to do
everything. To be a good person, to put other people first, to live your life
and do what makes you happy. If I meet LeBron James, that would make my day.
I wouldn’t ask for anything.”
Indianapolis Star中Doyel的專欄寫道：
他告訴我："我的遺願清單就是見LeBron一面，這是一件我想要做的事，就是見LeBron
James一面。他是我的榜樣。他鼓舞了我去做每一件事、成為一個好人、永遠將其他人擺
在自己前面、好好生活並且作能令自己開心的事。如果我能見到LeBron James，那將會是
最美好的一天，我便再也不要求什麼了。"
LeBron heard Duncan’s story, and decided to write him a letter.
LeBron聽了Duncan的故事後，決定寫給他一封信：
Hey Emanuel,
I've heard some pretty amazing things about you, and from what I've heard, I
can tell you're an unbelievable coach. I know you said that I'm your role
model and that I inspire you, but I know that you give so many people
inspiration, including me. You are living out what it means to be a role
model, to be a good person, to put others first and live life to the fullest,
doing what makes you happy. It is awesome that you are inspiring so many
young kids and teaching them about the importance of living life to the
fullest. You live this out each and every day. This is reminder to me to
continue doing that whether I'm on or off the court.
嘿，Emanuel，
我聽說了關於你的一些很令人驚奇的事，而從我所聽到的，我可以確信你是是一位難以
置信的好教練。我知道你說我是你的榜樣，鼓舞了你，但就我所知道的，是你給了好多
人激勵，包括我。你活出了大家所謂的榜樣、成為一個好人、永遠將其他人擺在自己前
面、活著將生命發揮到淋漓盡致，做著讓自己快樂的事。你正激勵著好多小朋友並且教
導他們好好生活將生命發揮到淋漓盡致的重要，這真的很了不起。你每天都如此努力的
活著，這提醒了我不管在球場上與否，都必須一直這樣生活。
I wanted to send you a few things I thought you'd like to let you know that
I'm thinking of you. I know you are a fighter and you are very strong. And I
hope you know that you are not going through this alone ... I know you have a
whole team of people from everywhere supporting you. Not sure if you knew
this but I wear these things called I PROMISE bands every time I step onto
the court. They make me think of the PROMISES I have made to myself and
others. Here's one for you and me to share as we work with kids ... I PROMISE
TO NEVER GIVE UP.
Together we will change the world.
LeBron James
我想給你一些我認為你想要的，讓你知道我正掛念著你。我知道你是一位堅強的鬥士。我
希望你知道你並非一個人承受這一切...我知道你有一整隊來自世界各地的隊員正支持著
你。不確定你知不知道我每天都戴著印有 "I PROMISE" 的手環踏進球場，它們使我想著
我曾經對自己與其他人的承諾。這裡有一則是給你和我一起分享的諾言...............
我承諾永遠不會放棄!
我們一起努力一定能改變這世界
LeBron James
