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.
当我还是一个年轻人时，我梦想去改变世界。但是当我发现这很难实现时，我就试图去改变我的国家。
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.
当我发现我不能去改变我的国家时，我开始把注意力放在我居住的.城镇上。当我逐渐变老而又无力去改变我住的城镇时，我就试着去改变我的家庭。
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，我已经是一个老人了。我意识到我唯一能改变的就是我自己。并且突然见我领悟到：如果很久以前我改变了我自己，我就可能对我的家庭，乃至使我住的城镇发生影响。
Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world.
这种影响持续下去就能够改变我的国家，进而改变整个世界。
