westminster abbey in the basement, the tomb of an anglican bishop wrote such a sentence: 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 be changed, so i will focus on the so some, it only changed my country! but my country seems i cannot change. when i arrived in twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, i decided to change only my family, those closest to me, but alas! they don't accept change. now i on his deathbed, i suddenly realize: if i had only changed myself first, then by example i would have changed my family. then, in their inspiration and encouragement, i may change my country. and then, who knows, maybe i can change the whole world.
life is like water, people can only adapt to the environment. if you can't change the environment, change yourself, the only way to overcome more difficulties and overcome more setbacks, self realization. if can not see their own shortcomings and deficiencies, just blindly blame the environment, so as to change the situation of hope in the changing environment this is really, in vain.
although we can not change the world, but we can change ourselves, let us with love and wisdom to face all the environment

ladies and gentlemen, this is joe biden, i'm filling in for president obama, while he addresses the nato summit in wales.
when the president and i took office in january of , this nation was in the midst of the greatest economic crisis since the great depression. our economy had plummeted1 at a rate of 8% in a single quarter-part of the fastest economic decline any time in the last half century. millions of families were falling underwater on their homes and threatened with foreclosure. the iconic american automobile2 industry was under siege.
but yesterday's jobs report was another reminder3 of how far we've come. we've had 54 straight months of job creation. and that's the longest streak4 of uninterrupted job growth in the united states' history.
we've gone from losing 9 million jobs during the financial crisis to creating 10 million jobs. we've reduced the unemployment rate from 10% in october of to 6.1% today. and for the first time since the 1990s, american manufacturing is steadily5 adding jobs-over 700,000 since . and surveys of both american and foreign business leaders confirm that america once again is viewed as the best place in the world to build and invest.
but an awful lot of middle class americans are still not feeling the effects of this recovery. since the year , gross domestic product-our gdp - has risen by 25%. and productivity in america is up by 30%. but middle class wages during that same time period have gone up by only fourteen cents.
folks, it's long past time to cut the middle class back into the deal, so they can benefit from the economic growth they helped create. folks, there used to be a bargain in this country supported by democrats6 and republicans, business and labor7. the bargain was simple. if an employee contributed to the growth and profitability of the company, they got to share in the profits and the benefits as well. that's what built the middle class. it's time to restore the bargain, to deal the middle class back in. because, folks, when the middle class does well, everybody does well-the wealthy get wealthier and the poor have a way up.

everyone tries to achieve success in his/her career. but some finally attain their aims while others fail. why? some continue their cause to the end through long period of hard struggles， but others are easily disappointed and stop halfway.
strong will， perseverance and diligence are the three essentials of success. a man of strong will and perseverance always has an inflexible spirit. he sticks to his cause no matter how tough it might be. life is short and we have too much to do. without diligence no one can achieve anything.
i believe that where there is a will there is a way， and that success belongs to those who can make constant efforts.
don't be afraid of life. believe that life is worth living， and your belief will help create the fact

as we all know, the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it, tons of men have tried different ways of treating life, and some succeeded, some failed, and here are some of the tips they left us.
life isnsquo;t about keeping score. life isnsquo;t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. in fact itsquo;s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone, and itsquo;s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. life just isnsquo;t about that.
but life is about whom you love and who you hurt. itsquo;s about how you feel about yourself. itsquo;s about trust, happiness and compassion. itsquo;s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. itsquo;s about what you say and what you mean. itsquo;s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. and we should always remember to be ourselves. other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. most of all, itsquo;s about choosing to use your life to touch someone elsesquo;s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.
the paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers; we buy more but enjoy them less. wesquo;ve learnt how to make a living but not a life, wesquo;ve added years to life, but not life to years. and it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.
