"When was the best time to plant a tree? Twenty years ago. When’s the next best time? Right now." - Chinese Proverb

Don’t put it off! “Plant” creative thoughts: teach it, sing it out, give a speech or rap the lyrics. Write the poem that’s begged your heart for expression. Choreograph the dance that begs you to leap and twirl. Make commitments that inspire you: “plant the tree” that becomes home to birds, butterflies, fruit, flowers, nests, raindrops and a climber’s high hopes. Contributions made twenty years ago have roots and wings today. “The next best thing,” is within your power to make real and beautiful; don’t put it off!
