The Starfish Story: Changing the World One Step at a Time

One day the tide had washed up thousands of starfish that were riddled across the sea shore. They needed water. They were dying. A boy saw this and he started throwing those starfish one by one back into the ocean.

A man said, “Boy, why are you spending your time doing that? There are thousands of them…what you are doing will never make a difference.”

The boy looked at him, threw one more starfish into the ocean and said, “Well, it made a difference to that one.”
