The Boy and the Starfish
Once, after a big storm, thousands of starfish were washed up on the beach. The sun was hot, and the starfish were dying because they were out of the water.
A young boy was walking along the shore. He began picking up the starfish one by one and throwing them back into the ocean.
An old man watched him and laughed. He said, "Son, there are miles of beach and thousands of starfish. You can’t save them all. It doesn’t make a difference!"
The boy looked at the small starfish in his hand, threw it safely into the waves, and replied:
"It made a difference to that one."✨
