You Raise Me Up

When I am down and, oh, my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.


You raise me up to more than I can be.

編輯力

這本書的封面寫著:出版老將必備,編輯新人必學,愛書人必讀。筆者不敢稱自己是老將,然而已不是新人,當然是愛書人,所以就接受挑戰,看看這本書有多少料子。

這本書的副題是:從創意企畫到人際關係,內容涉及跟編輯有關的不同題目,層面很廣。首章講的是「編輯是甚麼」,當我看完後,我覺得所討論的不只是編輯所需的特質,其他職業的人其實都需要有這些質素,例如其中一點是「持續懷抱夢想」。從事任何職業的人若沒有夢想,當工作了一段日子後,便會失去繼續前進動力。夢想能推動你去進修學習,去發揮創意,去改變現況。也許你的夢想不是很偉大,但仍然是在推動著你走人生前面的路。
