The Sufi says about himself:
a youth I was a revolutionary and my prayer was to say to God: "Lord, give me strength to change the world."
As I became an adult and I realized that I had spent half his life without being able to switch to a single soul, I transformed my prayer and began to say: "Lord, grant me the grace to transform those who enter contact me, if only my family and friends with that I am satisfied. "
Now I'm old and I have days I have begun to realize how stupid I was. My only prayer is:" Lord, grant me the grace to change myself " .
If I had prayed in this way from the beginning would not have wasted my life.
EVERYONE THINKS OF CHANGING TO MANKIND. Almost no one thinks of changing ITSELF.
