There are times in our life when we want to change the world... We may never be able to do that, but least we can do is to change somebody's world....
Once an old man was walking on the beach at dawn. He noticed a little boy ahead of him, picking up a starfish and flinging them into the sea. As the man watched, the kid picked one starfish after another & flung them into the sea. Wondering what the kid was trying to do, he caught up with the young boy & asked him why he was doing this.
The kid looked up with innocent eyes & answered that the stranded starfish would die if left in the morning sun. “But the beach goes on for miles and there are thousands of starfish,” countered the old man. “How can your effort make any difference.”
The young boy looked at the starfish in his hand and then threw it to the safety of the waves. “It makes a difference to this one,” he said.
