A BEACH FILLED WITH STARFISH

Making a Difference

A woman was walking along a beach filled with starfish.

As she walked, she would stoop down, pick one up at random, and throw it back into the ocean. A man came upon her and asked why she was bothering with throwing some back when there were so many - how could it possibly make a difference?

She picked up another starfish, threw it back into the ocean, and said, "It made a difference to that one."
