Summer Issue, 2012
New York, USA Welcome visiting students from HKU Young and senior from over six decades! What will matter is not what you bought, but what you built; What will matter is not what you got, but what you gave; What will matter is not your success, but your significance; What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught; What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, or sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged people that emulate you; What will matter is not your competence, but your character; What will matter is not how many people you knew, but how many will feel a lasting loss when you have gone; What will matter is not your memories, but the memories that live in those who loved you; What will matter is how long you will be remembered, by whom and for what; Living a life that matters does not happen by accident; it is not a matter of circumstance but of choice. Excerpt from the speech by Dr Raymond Li 李國澤 (BA 1969), President of HKUAA of NewYork Central USA Despite a heavy downpour, the alumni were joined by four new members and everyone had a good time.
