Planting for Future Generations

John Maxwell tells the story of a man in his eighties who was busy planting an apple orchard. The older man carefully planted the tiny apple trees and faithfully watered the saplings.

A young man observed the time spent by the elderly gentleman on this project and asked him, “You don’t expect to eat apples from those trees, do you?” The man responded “No, but somebody will.”
