We cannot make old communities, but the second best time to plant a tree is today. That’s why I’m here, commenting and posting.
I love your comment: "The second best time to plant a tree is today". Not sure if it's a quote you've reused but, from here on in, I'm using it.
I believe it’s an ancient proverb. Nothing is truly original, but it applies to many areas such as self improvement.
Reminds me of another: societies grow great when old men plant seeds for trees whose shade they know they'll never enjoy.
