懷念陳蕾士老師

《樂生》與《理得心安》


陳老師在2008年師生團圓晚宴上發言。這是他人生最後一次公開演說。

陳蕾士老師與世長辭,然而他講過的兩句話深印腦海。

49年前,當我們高中畢業,即將離開母校時,陳蕾士老師為學生在他們的師友
留言紀念冊上題詞,別具創意。他以柔中有勁的書法,為每一位要求題詞的學
生寫上《樂生》兩個字。

他以《樂生》兩個字勉勵剛畢業的學生,快樂地對待人生,追求快樂的人生。

兩年前,我們與陳老師再見面,再續前緣。陳蕾士老師又向我們談他的人生
哲理。他告訴我們,他追求精神上的幸福,並達到了高壽長命。

他認為,《心安理得》這句話應倒過來改為《理得心安》。
他說,他一生處世為
人重視理得,重義輕利,因此活得心安,年老时內心十分幸福,心曠神怡。因
此,他的人生不只達到長壽,同時也獲得幸福。



吉隆坡的雷大慶校友寫道:








This morning as I was climbing down the hills after my morning exercise I received a call from Zhao Xian who told me old teacher Chen Ruis passed away this morning at his home in Malacca.

The passing away of our old teacher Chen Ruis is not a surprise because he was already so old. But his attendance at our meeting at Al Famosa gave us some precious time to be with him.

I still remember the day when I went to his house to fetch him for the meeting at Al Famosa together with Chang Er he appeared to be pleased. He was apparently pleased to meet old headmasters Shee Chi Li and Lim Hong Du and many others of Class 1961 again. I think together we reallly had a good time.

His retirement must be a lonely one, partly because of his health and party because of his own choice. I will always remember him as the most scholarly teacher who could play very well the ancient Chinese harp. I saw his performance at the Sultan Jubilee Hall at Muar years ago when he was teaching at CHHS, that was very good.

May he rest in peace.

澳洲林倉貳校友寫道:

May he rest in peace. We were privileged to have him as one of our CHHS teachers. His attendance at our reunion in Malacca might well be his last public engagement. We ought to be thankful.
