Today's quote was submitted by Brent
Warren Buffett said “Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.” This is a great quote. I often think about the generation before me. They built so many things for their community. If you drive around most small towns, you'll see baseball fields, parks and other community spaces that were established just over fifty years ago. My generation benefited from these places, the generation after me also continues to benefit from these places. But at some point, it was just a chunk of ground. Someone had to have the vision to make it more. The vision alone didn't do anything. Someone had to raise the money to make it happen, then someone had to do the work to actually build it. I feel like my generation has let future generations down a little bit. We had these places, but what have we done to add more?
