Making a Difference . . . .
An old man walked up a shore strewn with thousands of starfish, beached and dying after a storm. A young girl was picking them up and flinging them back into the ocean. "Why do you bother," the old man scoffed. "You're not saving enough to make a difference." The young girl picked up another starfish and sent it spinning back to the water. "Made a difference to that one," she said.
