Spiritual Story by Christina Feldman and Jack Kornfield
Nasrudin was now an old man looking back on his life. He sat with his friends in the tea shop telling his story. "When I was young I was firey - I wanted to awaken everyone. I prayed to God to give me the strength to change the world.
In mid-life I awoke one day and realized my life was half over and I had changed no one SO I prayed to God to give me the strength to change those close around me who so much needed it.
Alas, now I am old and my prayer is simpler. "God," I ask, "please give me the strength to at least change myself."
