The Starfish Story
Once
a man and his grandson were vacationing at a
beautiful seaside resort. Late one evening
under a full moon, the man and the boy
decided to take a stroll down the deserted
beach. The boy immediately dashed off and
began picking up starfish one by one and
hurriedly returned them to the sea. There
were hundreds of starfish on the shore. The
grandfather said, “Joey what are you doing?
The tide and the wind have washed so many
starfish onto the beach. What difference do
you think you can possibly make to so many?”
Joey pondered the question, looked at the
starfish in his hand then replied,
“Grandfather, I know I can’t make a
difference for all the starfish that need
help, but I can make a difference to this
one." Anonymous
