The hub of society is the family. In your time and efforts and good deeds, start with your family; then extend to your neighborhood; then your town; then your county; then your state; then your country; then the world...
In anything but that order, you are building a house of cards on a flimsy foundation. The world needs good families; the rest will come. But it doesn't just happen.
R.A.T. (Rose About Town) has always believed that.
