| 摘要: | 本研究以敘說的方式，回顧研究者自身在貧窮的環境下成長的經歷，進行生命的回溯與反思。研究者在近六十年的生命道路上，對困境的看法不斷調整，從最一開始的樂觀開朗，經歷無奈自卑、轉念接受、心懷感恩等階段，最後決定整理好自己，出發回饋社會。本研究是一段個體復原力的真實展現。
研究者經歷長期的貧困毒性壓力，對身心健康造成了嚴重影響，但是樂觀心態、宗教力量、家人支持、體育鍛練、同儕相處、貴人相助等，都成為研究者得以復原的動力。至此，研究者心中明白「幸福要靠自己努力」，也感謝自己一路以來的強韌生命力。雖然人生的任何時刻都有可能再度面臨難關，但是以往面對艱困的種種經驗，都讓研究者能夠快速適應，並做好準備接受新的挑戰。
Employing a narrative approach, this study aims to make a self-retrospection and self-reflection through a review of the researcher’s own experiences of growing up in a poverty-stricken environment. The researcher has continuously been changing her views on past hardships in her journey over nearly 60 years. The stages include being optimistic and cheerful; feeling helpless and inferior to others; letting go; embracing a grateful attitude; and finally, aiming to compose herself and give back to society. This study is a genuine manifestation of an individual’s resilience.
The researcher has experienced prolonged toxic stress from poverty, which has had a severe impact on her physical and mental health. Nevertheless, her optimism, religious faith, family support, physical exercise, peer relationships, and the assistance of kind-hearted individuals have all served as the sources of motivation for her recovery. The researcher realized that “happiness comes from one’s own efforts,” and she is grateful for her enduring resilience. While life can present new challenges at any moment, her past experiences of facing hardships have prepared her to adapt quickly and be ready to accept new challenges. |
