Soul Surfer

Soul surfer is a film adaptation of the 2004    autobiography Soul Surfer: A True Story of Faith, Family, and Fighting to Get Back on the Board. It showed us the life of a Christian surfer-Bethany Hamilton who was attacked by a shark. By blessing, Bethany Hamilton gave birth to a baby boy in this June and named the boy as Tobias which means “God is good”。

灵魂冲浪人的电影改编自2004年出版的传记文学《灵魂冲浪：一个关于信念、家庭和重新站上冲浪板的真实故事》。影片中讲述了基督徒冲浪手、鲨鱼袭击幸存者贝瑟尼·汉密尔顿的经历。贝瑟尼·汉密尔顿在今年6月份和丈夫亚当·德克(Adam Dirks)受“祝福”迎来他们的第一个孩子，取名托比亚斯，意思为“神的善良”。

Vaguely remember that when this movie was released 4 years ago, I was so excited to go to     the movie theater to watch. Unfortunately, the    ticket was sold out. Undergo long time waiting,   finally I watched it. Until now, there are 2 scenes are still very green in my mind.

依稀的记得四年前这部电影刚上映时，极度兴奋的冲到电影院要去欣赏。但却由于满座，未能如愿。经过漫长时间的等待，终于观赏到这部影片。时至今日，有两个镜头依然在脑海中记忆犹新。

The first one is on the seaside of Thailand,    one little girl lost her families is smiling on the     surfer board because she got the encouragement from Bethany Hamilton.

一个镜头捕捉到的是在泰国海边，由于海啸失去家人的小姑娘在贝瑟尼·汉密尔顿的鼓励下，重新漂浮在大海中的微笑。

And another one frames in the scene that     Bethany Hamilton is braving the wonderful wave in the National surfing Championships. Theawesome is beyond description.

另一个镜头捕捉到的是重整旗鼓的贝瑟尼·汉密尔顿在全国的冲浪锦标赛中，她踏着冲浪板穿过排山倒海的浪花滑翔出来，真的不是一个“帅”字可以形容的。

第一个镜头发生在贝瑟尼·汉密尔顿被大鲨鱼咬掉胳膊出院后，她并不能明白神的心意是什么。

The first moment was just after Bethany Hamilton was discharged from hospital after the arm wound healing.However, the wound in her  heart was still open because she could not understand why God allowed this disaster happened on her.

Before this accident she pushed off her ministry work which she promised to do, and she made all her effort for the surf riding competition. At this moment, she devoted herself to God and went to Thailand for volunteer work.

以前为了参加比赛她推掉计划好的宣教服侍事，这次她愿意放下自己，委身到泰国的海啸灾后救助事工中。

In Thailand, she witnessed so many people     lost their families, especially when she saw a little girl who was in panic, she realized that God has a purpose for her. By encouraging the little girl, Bethany inspired herself too. Therefore, she could restand up on the surfer board to participate in surfing competition which brought the 2nd scene.

在那里她亲眼目睹了很多家破人亡的受难者，特别是看到那个处于惊恐中的小姑娘，她发现了自己生命的意义与价值，在她鼓励小姑娘的同时，也给了自己重新振作的勇气。所以，也就有了第二个镜头的出现。

In her tireless efforts and perseverance, going through countless failures, she clearly knows that God give her the talent for surfer and she could

do anything with the power of God. She was conscious of the wave coming time, and she seized the moment to ride the crest of the wave.

在不懈的努力下，在一次次的失败中，她知道上帝给她冲浪的恩赐，也明白靠着那加给她力量的她凡事都可以做。靠着对浪潮的敏感性，她成功的察觉到下一个大浪的来临，于是呈现了那个让人惊叹的冲浪镜头。
