When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world.
I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to
change my nation. When I found I couldn’t change the nation,
I began to focus on my town. I couldn’t change the town and as
an older man,I tried to change my family. Now as an old man, I realize
the only thing I can change is myself, and suddenly I realize that
if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an impact on my
family. My family and I could have made an impact on our town. Their impact
could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world!
