One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed a boy hurriedly picking up and gently throwing things into the ocean.
๑
Approaching the boy, he asked, young man, what are you doing?
๑
The boy replied, throwing starfish back into the ocean. if i don't throw them back, they'll die.
๑
The man laughed to himself and said, don't you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish? you can't make any difference !
๑
After listening politely the boy bent down, picked up another starfish, and threw it into the surf.
๑
Then, smiling at the man, he said, I made a difference for that one.

The above beautiful story was posted on my birthday—so I must share! It resonates with one of my favorite quotes: “Let everyone sweep in front of his own door, and the whole world would be
