The following words were written on the tomb of an Angelic Bishop....
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 my self first, then by example I would have changed my family.
From their inspiration and encouragement, I would have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed the world.

Tats a good one....n soo true...everybody talks of changing de world n all but then doesn't it start from ourselves...if u as an individual do not step up first and set an example four urself n others, then I think such people should not expect too much out of life.
