The Starfish Story…
While walking along a beach, an elderly gentleman saw someone in the distance leaning down, picking something up, and throwing it into the ocean. He came closer and called out,
“Good morning! May I ask what it is that you are doing?”
The young man paused, looked up, and replied “Throwing starfish into the ocean.”
The old man smiled, and said, “I must ask, then, why are you throwing starfish into the ocean?”
The young man replied, “The sun is up and the tide is going out. If I don’t throw them in, they’ll die.”
The elderly observer commented, “But, young man, do you not realize that there are miles and miles of beach and there are starfish all along every mile? You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked up another starfish, threw it back into the ocean past the breaking waves, and said, “I made a difference for that one.”
