🌴 Once upon a time, there was a wise old man who had the habit of walking along the beach every morning. One day, after a big storm had passed, the man noticed a young boy reaching toward the sand, picking up small objects, and throwing them into the ocean. As he approached, the old man called out: "Good morning, may I ask what it is that you are doing?" The young boy paused, looked up, and yelled: "I'm throwing starfish into the ocean." The wise man walked closer and replied: "Why are you throwing starfish into the ocean?" The boy explained: "The sun is coming up, and the tide is going out. If I don't throw them back in, they'll die." Upon hearing this, the wise man commented: "But there are miles and miles of beach, and starfish along every mile. You can't possibly make a difference!" In this, the young boy bent down, picked up another starfish, threw it back into the ocean and said: "I made a difference for that one." 📸: @michaels_bubbles 📝: #LorenEiseley 🌴: #GoingForIT https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp4IpkkgUcO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cqxrjsyurt1f
