Making a Difference

One morning a man walked along a beach covered with thousands of starfish that had washed up during a storm. Now they lay dying in the sun. He saw a young girl picking up the starfish one-by-one and tossing them into the sea.

As he approached her, he couldn't help but ask, "Why bother? There are too many of them. You won't make much of a difference."

She picked up another starfish and tossed it into the water; then she turned to the man and said, "I made a difference to that one."

One person can make a difference, if they just try.
