Hi Lilly!
Could I ask you a bridge for evaluation, pls?

"Life changes when you change"

Thank you, Lilly.
I have only one doubt.
"Life changes"
Is this a life which changes something or a life which is changed by itself?

"you change".
Is it "you" who changes something, or "you" which is changed by him/herself.

I'm asking because English has no "medium voice", so it always uses active voice, for example
I change him. /active/
I change myself./medium/
There is not a medium voice in Latin too, but it is replaced by a "passive voice"...

I thought it was clear

It means that if you want to change something in your life, you, yourself must change.

Thank you Lilly! Yes it was clear for me, but Latin translation was expressed in the active voice and it suggests that an object is different than a subject.

Alex, I believe you should have used the passive voice here (with medial meaning):

Vita mutat quando tu mutas -->Vita mutatur quando tu mutaris.

Do you agree?

Yes, I do.
