When You Are Gone.
Plant a tree. You found several here when you landed on this old earth and you’ve seen a great many cut down during your time. You have probably cut down a few yourself. The children who are born after you have passed on have a right to find a few trees standing. But they will not if every person who passes through this vale of tears cuts down a few and forgets to plant any. Plant a tree. Plant a dozen of them, and then you will have done something for the generations who follow you, even as some one did something for you ages ago. Fori Lauderdale Herald.
