When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world. I found it difficult to change the world, so I tried to change my nation.
當我還是一個年輕人時，我夢想去改變世界。但是當我發現這很難實現時，我就試圖去改變我的國家。
When I found I couldn’t change my 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.
當我發現我不能去改變我的國家時，我開始把注意力放在我居住的.城鎮上。當我逐漸變老而又無力去改變我住的城鎮時，我就試著去改變我的家庭。
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 and I could have made an impact on the town.
如今，我已經是一個老人了。我意識到我唯一能改變的就是我自己。并且突然見我領悟到：如果很久以前我改變了我自己，我就可能對我的家庭，乃至使我住的城鎮發生影響。
Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world.
這種影響持續下去就能夠改變我的國家，進而改變整個世界。
