To put the world right in order, we must first
To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.
~~ Confucius ~~ (551 BC - 479 BC)
So basically we have to start with ourselves first and then work upwards. Just like the song says ‘If you wanna change the World, take a look at the mirror and make the change’. But nobody seems to be interested in setting ourselves right first. We all want to set others right first!
