A story is told of a man who aspired to change his society when he came of age.After graduating with a PhD in Change and Reformation from a prestigious university, he embarked on his dream.After a decade at the national level he failed to alter anything.
Undeterred, he went a step lower and turned his focus to his tribe.Another decade later he had achieved nothing.With his indefatigable zeal for change, he retreated to his clan, now with an experienced enthusiasm.Here he bagged 30 years without realising an iota of change among his people.
With resentment and age catching up with him, he resorted to change and reform his family.But his children were already grown ups and since old dogs do not learn new tricks, he hit another brick wall.
The learned but worn out agent of change was now suffering from ailments related to age and frustration.But somehow he came to his senses.He was now confronted by stark naked truth that to start with, he needed change himself in order to offer change to the world!
