A philosophy of life

A nice philosophy of life taken from the fireftp inventor's website.

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 I realize as I lie on my deathbed,
If I had only changed myself first,
Then by example I might have changed my family,
From their inspiration and encouragement
I would then have been able to better my country,
And who knows, I might have even changed the world.

And once again u get lost in the dreams..
Once again u wonder abt ice cream...
And this goes on again and again
Like u r seeing the endless train
You dont want to stop and u dont pull the chain
And while its passing by u feel soothing all ur pains
