First shown at TED2017]

Prvi put prikazano na TED2017]

Good evening – or, good morning, I am not sure what time it is there.

Dobra večer - ili, dobro jutro. Nisam siguran koliko je tamo sati.

Regardless of the hour, I am thrilled to be participating in your conference.

Bez obzira na sat, oduševljen sam što ću sudjelovati u vašoj konferenciji.

I very much like its title – "The Future You" –

Jako mi se sviđa njen naziv - "Budući Vi" -

because, while looking at tomorrow, it invites us to open a dialogue today,

jer, dok gledamo u sutrašnjicu, poziva nas da otvorimo dijalog danas,

to look at the future through a "you."

kako bismo gledali budućnost kroz "vas."

"The Future You:"

"Budući Vi."

the future is made of yous, it is made of encounters,

budućnost je napravljena od vas, napravljena je od susreta,

because life flows through our relations with others.

jer život teče kroz naše odnose s drugima.

Quite a few years of life

Poprilične godine života

have strengthened my conviction

ojačale su moju prosudbu

that each and everyone's existence is deeply tied to that of others:

kako je svačije postojanje vezano s postojanjem drugih:

life is not time merely passing by, life is about interactions.

život nije samo vrijeme koje prolazi, život je u interakcijama.

As I meet, or lend an ear to those who are sick,

Kako susrećem, ili slušam one koji su bolesni,

to the migrants who face terrible hardships

migrante koji se suočavaju sa strašnim poteškoćama

in search of a brighter future,

u potrazi za svjetlijom budučnošću,

to prison inmates who carry a hell of pain inside their hearts,

zatvorenicima koji nose pakao boli u svojim srcima,

and to those, many of them young, who cannot find a job,

i onima, mnogima od njih mladima, koji ne mogu naći posao,

I often find myself wondering:

često se pitam:

"Why them and not me?"

"Zašto oni a ne ja?"

I, myself, was born in a family of migrants;

Ja sam rođen u migrantskoj obitelji;

my father, my grandparents, like many other Italians,

moj otac, moji baka i djed, kao mnogi drugi Talijani,

left for Argentina

otišli su za Argentinu

and met the fate of those who are left with nothing.

i spoznali sudbinu onih koji su ostavljeni bez ičega.

I could have very well ended up among today's "discarded" people.

Mogao sam vrlo lako završiti među današnjim "odbačenim" ljudima.

And that's why I always ask myself, deep in my heart:

I zato se uvijek pitam, duboko u svom srcu:

"Why them and not me?"

"Zašto oni a ne ja?"

First and foremost, I would love it if this meeting could help to remind us

Prvo i najvažnije, volio bih kada bi nam ovaj sastanak pomogao podsjetiti nas

that we all need each other,

da svi mi trebamo jedni druge,

none of us is an island,

nitko od nas nije otok,

an autonomous and independent "I," separated from the other,

autonomno i neovisno "Ja", odvojeno od drugih,

and we can only build the future by standing together, including everyone.

i kako jedino možemo graditi budućnost zajedno, uključujući sve.

We don’t think about it often, but everything is connected,

Ne razmišljamo često o tome, ali sve je povezano,

and we need to restore our connections to a healthy state.

i moramo vratiti naše veze u zdravo stanje.

Even the harsh judgment I hold in my heart

Čak i oštra osuda koju imam u srcu

against my brother or my sister,

protiv mog brata ili sestre,

the open wound that was never cured, the offense that was never forgiven,

otvorena rana koja nikad nije zaliječena, uvreda koja nije nikad oproštena,

the rancor that is only going to hurt me,

mržnja koja će mi samo nanijeti zlo,

are all instances of a fight that I carry within me,

sve su primjeri borbe koju nosim u sebi,

a flare deep in my heart that needs to be extinguished

vatru u mom srcu koju treba ugasiti

before it goes up in flames, leaving only ashes behind.

prije nego izgori, ostavljajući samo pepeo.

Many of us, nowadays,

Mnogi od nas, ovih dana,

seem to believe that a happy future is something impossible to achieve.

vjeruju kako je sretna budućnost nešto što ne možemo postići.

While such concerns must be taken very seriously,

Iako se takve brige trebaju shvatiti vrlo ozbiljno,

they are not invincible.

one nisu nepobjedive.

They can be overcome when we don't lock our door to the outside world.

Možemo ih prevladati kada ne zaključamo vrata vanjskom svijetu.

Happiness can only be discovered

Sreća se može jedino otkriti

as a gift of harmony between the whole and each single component.

kao dar harmonije između cjeline i svake pojedine komponente.

Even science – and you know it better than I do –

Čak i znanost - a vi to znate bolje od mene -

points to an understanding of reality

ukazuje na shvaćanje stvarnosti

as a place where every element connects and interacts with everything else.

kao mjesta gdje se svaki element povezuje i u interakciji je sa svime.

And this brings me to my second message.

I to me vodi do moje sljedeće poruke.

How wonderful would it be

Kako bi prekrasno bilo

if the growth of scientific and technological innovation

da rast znanstvene i tehnološke inovacije

would come along with more equality and social inclusion.

dolazi sa više jednakosti i društvene uključivosti.

How wonderful would it be, while we discover faraway planets,

Kako prekrasno bi bilo da, dok otkrivamo daleke planete,

to rediscover the needs of the brothers and sisters orbiting around us.

ponovno otkrivamo potrebe svojih braće i sestara u orbiti oko nas.

How wonderful would it be if solidarity,

Kako prekrasno bi bilo da solidarnost,

this beautiful and, at times, inconvenient word,

ova prekrasna, i ponekad nezgodna riječ,

were not simply reduced to social work,

nije svedena samo na društveni rad,

and became, instead, the default attitude

već da umjesto toga postane osnovni stav

in political, economic and scientific choices,

u političkim, ekonomskim i znanstvenim izborima,

as well as in the relationships among individuals, peoples and countries.

kao i u vezama među pojedincima, ljudima i zemljama.

Only by educating people to a true solidarity

Jedino učeći ljude pravoj solidarnosti

will we be able to overcome

moći ćemo prevladati

the "culture of waste,"

"kulturu odbacivanja,"

which doesn't concern only food and goods

koja se ne odnosi samo na hranu i dobra

but, first and foremost, the people

već, prvo i najvažnije, na ljude

who are cast aside by our techno-economic systems

koji su odbačeni našim tehno ekonomskim sustavima

which, without even realizing it,

koji, bez da to shvaćamo,

are now putting products at their core, instead of people.

stavljaju proizvode ljudi u svoje središte, umjesto ljudi.

Solidarity is a term that many wish to erase from the dictionary.

Solidarnost je izraz koji mnogi žele izbrisati iz riječnika.

Solidarity, however, is not an automatic mechanism.

Solidarnost, ipak, nije automatski mehanizam.

It cannot be programmed or controlled.

Ne može se programirati ili kontrolirati.

It is a free response born from the heart of each and everyone.

To je slobodan odgovor rođen iz srca svakoga.

Yes, a free response!

Da, slobodan odgovor.

When one realizes

Kada netko shvati

that life, even in the middle of so many contradictions, is a gift,

da je život, tolikim proturječnostima unatoč, dar,

that love is the source and the meaning of life,

da je ljubav izvor i smisao života,

how can they withhold their urge to do good to another fellow being?

kako mogu zadržati svoj poriv da čine dobro drugom ljudskom biću?

In order to do good,

Kako bi činili dobro,

we need memory, we need courage and we need creativity.

trebamo sjećanje, hrabrost i trebamo kreativnost,

And I know that TED gathers many creative minds.

i znam da TED okuplja mnoge kreativne umove.

Yes, love does require a creative, concrete

Da, ljubav traži kreativan, konkretan,

and ingenious attitude.

i inovativan stav.

Good intentions and conventional formulas,

Dobre namjere i konvencionalne formule,

so often used to appease our conscience, are not enough.

često korištene da umire našu savjest, nisu dovoljne.

Let us help each other, all together, to remember

Pomozimo jedni drugima, svi zajedno, da se sjetimo

that the other is not a statistic or a number.

da drugi nisu statistike ili brojke.

The other has a face.

Da drugi imaju lice.

The "you" is always a real presence,

"Vi" ste uvijek stvarna prisutnost,

a person to take care of.

osoba za koju se treba pobrinuti.

There is a parable Jesus told to help us understand the difference

Postoji prispodoba koju je Isus ispričao da nam pomogne shvatiti razliku

between those who'd rather not be bothered and those who take care of the other.

između onih koji bi da ih se ne smeta i onih koji se brinu za druge.

I am sure you have heard it before. It is the Parable of the Good Samaritan.

Vjerujem da ste je čuli prije. To je prispodoba o dobrom Samarićaninu.

When Jesus was asked: "Who is my neighbor?" -

Kada je Isus upitao: "Tko je moj susjed?" -

namely, "Who should I take care of?" -

točnije, "Za koga bih trebao brinuti?" -

he told this story, the story of a man

ispričao je ovu priču, priču o čovjeku

who had been assaulted, robbed, beaten and abandoned along a dirt road.

koji je bio napadnut, opljačkan, pretučen i napušten uz zemljanu cestu.

Upon seeing him, a priest and a Levite, two very influential people of the time,

Vidjevši ga, svećenik i Levit, dva vrlo utjecajna čovjeka toga doba,

walked past him without stopping to help.

prošli su pored njega bez da su zastali i pomogli.

After a while, a Samaritan, a very much despised ethnicity at the time, walked by.

Nakon nekog vremena, Samarićanin, dio vrlo prezirane skupine ljudi, prošao je.

Seeing the injured man lying on the ground,

Vidjevši ozlijeđenog čovjeka kako leži na zemlji,

he did not ignore him as if he weren't even there.

on ga nije ignorirao kao da uopće ne postoji.

Instead, he felt compassion for this man,

Umjesto toga, suosjećao je s tim čovjekom,

which compelled him to act in a very concrete manner.

što ga je potaklo da djeluje na vrlo konkretan način.

He poured oil and wine on the wounds of the helpless man,

Prelio je rane bespomoćnog čovjeka uljem i vinom,

brought him to a hostel

odveo ga u hostel

and paid out of his pocket for him to be assisted.

i platio za pomoć njemu iz vlastitog džepa.

The story of the Good Samaritan is the story of today’s humanity.

Priča Dobrog Samarićanina je priča današnje ljudskosti.

People's paths are riddled with suffering,

Putevi ljudi su prepuni rana

as everything is centered around money, and things, instead of people.

jer je sve usredotočeno na novac i stvari, umjesto na ljude.

And often there is this habit, by people who call themselves "respectable,"

I česta je navika ljudi koji se nazivaju "poštovanima,"

of not taking care of the others,

da se ne brinu za druge,

thus leaving behind thousands of human beings, or entire populations,

ostavljajući iza sebe tisuće ljudskih bića, čak populacije,

on the side of the road.

uz cestu.

Fortunately, there are also those who are creating a new world

Na sreću, postoje i drugi koji stvaraju novi svijet

by taking care of the other, even out of their own pockets.

brinući se za druge, čak i iz vlastitog džepa.

Mother Teresa actually said:

Majka Tereza je zapravo rekla:

"One cannot love, unless it is at their own expense."

"Ne možete voljeti, osim ako to niije na vlastiti trošak."

We have so much to do, and we must do it together.

Imamo toliko toga za napraviti i moramo to učiniti zajedno.

But how can we do that with all the evil we breathe every day?

Ali kako to možemo učiniti, sa svim zlom koje udišemo svakog dana?

Thank God,

Hvala Bogu,

no system can nullify our desire to open up to the good,

nijedan sustav ne može poništiti našu želju da se otvorimo dobru,

to compassion and to our capacity to react against evil,

da suosjećamo, i naš kapacitet da reagiramo protiv zla,

all of which stem from deep within our hearts.

a sve to potiče duboko iz našeg srca.

Now you might tell me,

Sad možete mi reći,

"Sure, these are beautiful words,

"Da, ovo su prekrasne riječi,

but I am not the Good Samaritan, nor Mother Teresa of Calcutta."

ali ja nisam Dobri Samarićanin, niti Majka Tereza iz Kalkute."

On the contrary: we are precious, each and every one of us.

Naprotiv: vi ste dragocjeni, svatko od vas.

Each and every one of us is irreplaceable in the eyes of God.

Svatko od nas je nezamjenjiv u Božjim očima.

Through the darkness of today's conflicts,

Kroz tamu današnjih sukoba,

each and every one of us can become a bright candle,

svatko od nas može postati sjajna svijeća,

a reminder that light will overcome darkness,

podsjetnik da će svjetlost prevladati tamu,

and never the other way around.

i da nikada neće biti suprotno.

To Christians, the future does have a name,

Za Kršćane, budućnost ima ime,

and its name is Hope.

i njeno ime je Nada.

Feeling hopeful does not mean to be optimistically naïve

Osjećati se pun nade ne znači biti optimistično naivan

and ignore the tragedy humanity is facing.

i ignorirati tragediju s kojom se čovječanstvo suočava.

Hope is the virtue of a heart

Nada je vrlina srca

that doesn't lock itself into darkness, that doesn't dwell on the past,

koje se ne zaključava u tamu, koje ne obitava u prošlosti,

does not simply get by in the present, but is able to see a tomorrow.

ne životari u sadašnjosti, ali je sposobno vidjeti sutrašnjicu.

Hope is the door that opens onto the future.

Nada su vrata koja se otvaraju u budućnost.

Hope is a humble, hidden seed of life

Nada je skromno, skriveno sjeme života

that, with time, will develop into a large tree.

koje će se, s vremenom, razviti u veliko drvo.

It is like some invisible yeast that allows the whole dough to grow,

To je kao nevidljivi kvasac koji omogućuje čitavom tijestu da raste,

that brings flavor to all aspects of life.

koje donosi začin u sve dijelove života.

And it can do so much,

I može učiniti tako puno,

because a tiny flicker of light that feeds on hope

jer mali treptaj svjetlosti koji se hrani nadom

is enough to shatter the shield of darkness.

je dovoljan da slomi štit tame.

A single individual is enough for hope to exist,

Jedan pojedinac je dovoljan kako bi postojala nada,

and that individual can be you.

i taj pojedinac možeš biti ti.

And then there will be another "you," and another "you,"

I onda će biti još jedan "ti," i još jedan "ti,"

and it turns into an "us."

a onda postajemo "mi."

And so, does hope begin when we have an "us?"

I onda, počinje li nada kada postojimo "mi?"

No.

Ne.

Hope began with one "you."

Nada počinje s jednim "ti."

When there is an "us," there begins a revolution.

Kada smo "mi," tada počinje revolucija.

The third message I would like to share today

Treća poruka koju želim podijeliti danas

is, indeed, about revolution: the revolution of tenderness.

je, zaista, o revoluciji: o revoluciji nježnosti.

And what is tenderness?

A što je nježnost?

It is the love that comes close and becomes real.

To je ljubav koja dolazi blizu i postaje stvarna.

It is a movement that starts from our heart

To je pokret koji počinje u našem srcu

and reaches the eyes, the ears and the hands.

i dolazi do očiju, ušiju, i ruku.

Tenderness means to use our eyes to see the other,

Nježnost znači koristiti naše oči da bismo vidjeli druge,

our ears to hear the other,

naše uši kako bismo čuli druge,

to listen to the children, the poor, those who are afraid of the future.

da poslušamo djecu, siromašne, one koji strahuju za budućnost.

To listen also to the silent cry of our common home,

Da poslušamo tihi vapaj našeg zajedničkog doma,

of our sick and polluted earth.

naše bolesne i onečišćene Zemlje.

Tenderness means to use our hands and our heart

Nježnost znači koristiti naše ruke i naše srce

to comfort the other,

da bismo utješili druge.

to take care of those in need.

Da bi se pobrinuli za potrebite.

Tenderness is the language of the young children,

Nježnost je jezik male djece,

of those who need the other.

onih koji trebaju druge.

A child’s love for mom and dad

Dječja ljubav za mamu i tatu

grows through their touch, their gaze, their voice, their tenderness.

raste kroz dodir, pogled, glas, nježnost.

I like when I hear parents

Volim čuti roditelje

talk to their babies, adapting to the little child,

kako pričaju s bebama, prilagođavajući se malom djetetu,

sharing the same level of communication.

dijeleći isti nivo komunikacije.

This is tenderness: being on the same level as the other.

Ovo je nježnost: biti na istoj razini kao drugi.

God himself descended into Jesus to be on our level.

Bog je sišao u Isusu kako bi bio na našoj razini.

This is the same path the Good Samaritan took.

To je isti put kojim je pošao Dobri Samarićanin.

This is the path that Jesus himself took.

Ovo je put kojim je pošao Isus.

He lowered himself,

Spustio se,

he lived his entire human existence

živio je cijeli svoj ljudski vijek

practicing the real, concrete language of love.

prakticirajući stvarni, konkretni, jezik ljubavi.

Yes, tenderness is the path of choice

Da, nježnost je put izbora

for the strongest, most courageous men and women.

za najjače, najhrabrije muškarce i žene.

Tenderness is not weakness; it is fortitude.

Nježnost nije slabost, to je snaga.

It is the path of solidarity, the path of humility.

To je put solidarnosti, put poniznosti.

Please, allow me to say it loud and clear:

Molim vas, dozvolite da to kažem jasno i glasno:

the more powerful you are,

što ste moćniji,

the more your actions will have an impact on people,

vaša djela više utječu na ljude,

the more responsible you are to act humbly.

odgovorniji ste za to da se ponašate skromno.

If you don’t, your power will ruin you, and you will ruin the other.

Ako to ne činite, moć će vas uništiti i vi ćete uništiti druge.

There is a saying in Argentina:

Postoji izreka u Argentini:

"Power is like drinking gin on an empty stomach."

Moć je kao ispijanje džina na prazan želudac.

You feel dizzy, you get drunk, you lose your balance,

Osjećat ćete vrtoglavicu, napit ćete se, izgubit ćete ravnotežu

and you will end up hurting yourself and those around you,

i na kraju ćete ozlijediti sebe i one oko vas,

if you don’t connect your power with humility and tenderness.

ako ne povežete vašu moć sa poniznošću i nježnošću.

Through humility and concrete love, on the other hand,

Kroz poniznost i konkretnu ljubav, s druge strane,

power – the highest, the strongest one – becomes a service, a force for good.

moć - najuzvišenija, najsnažnija - postaje usluga, sila za dobro.

The future of humankind isn't exclusively in the hands of politicians,

Budućnost ljudskog roda nije isključivo u rukama političara,

of great leaders, of big companies.

velikih vođa, velikih tvrtki.

Yes, they do hold an enormous responsibility.

Da, oni imaju ogromnu odgovornost.

But the future is, most of all, in the hands of those people

Ali budućnost je, ponajviše, u rukama onih ljudi

who recognize the other as a "you"

koji prepoznaju druge kao "vas,"

and themselves as part of an "us."

i sebe kao dijela "nas."

We all need each other.

Svi trebamo jedni druge.

And so, please, think of me as well with tenderness,

Tako da, molim vas, mislite na mene sa nježnošću,

so that I can fulfill the task I have been given

kako bih mogao ispuniti zadatak koji sam dobio

for the good of the other,

za dobro drugih,

of each and every one, of all of you,

svakoga, za sve vas,

of all of us.

za sve nas.

Thank you.

Hvala vam.
