When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the world. As i grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change,so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country. But it, too, seemed immovable.


As I grew into my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.


And now as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realize: If I had only changed myself first, then by example I would have changed my family.


From their inspiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed the world.



当我年轻自由意气风发的时候,梦想改变世界。后来长大变得聪明后才发现世界很难改变,于是我把目光拉近决定只是改变我的国家,然而依然很难。当我垂暮之年,绝望中尝试只改变我的家庭,可是他们都不接受。


现在我行将就木,突然意识到:倘若当初我是只改变我自己,并作为榜样影响我的家庭;进而在他们的激发和鼓励下或许可以改变我的国家,甚至,最终改变世界。
