"One morning a man was walking down a beach that was covered in dying starfish.
The tide the night before had been especially strong and thousands of starfish
had been washed up on shore, too far up for them to make it back into the water
by themselves. The man shook his head as he trudged along thinking what a shame
it was that all of those starfish would die on the beach. He came upon a boy who
was throwing starfish back into the ocean as fast as he could. He was out of
breath and it was obvious that he had been at this task for a while. "Son," the
man said, "you might as well quit. There are thousands of them. They are washed
up all over the beach as far as you can see. There is no way you can make any
sort of a difference." The boy did not even pause in what he was doing. He kept
bending and throwing but as he did, he spoke to the man, "I can make a
difference to this one, and this one, and this one." Looking forward to making a difference ! |
