"La révolution par excellence est celle de l'esprit née d'une conviction intellectuelle de la nécessité de changer les attitudes mentales et les valeurs qui façonnent le cours du développement d'une nation"
— Aung San Suu Kyi
Simplified Meaning:
Changing a country for the better starts with a change in people's thinking and values. It's about recognizing that we need to improve the way we think about things and what's important to us. Think of it like getting healthier: It's not just about eating better, but also understanding why good nutrition matters and valuing our health. For example, in the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, people changed their attitudes about race and equality. This shift in thinking helped create new laws and better treatment for all citizens. People saw that treating everyone fairly wasn't just a nice idea; it was necessary for the country to grow and improve. If you want to make a real difference in your community or country, start by examining your own thoughts and values. Encourage others to do the same. When people change inside, their actions change, and together, these new actions can shape a brighter future for everyone.
