Hello, my name is LITLEred and this is a classic story about a young girl making a
difference in the world.
A young girl stood along a sandy beach early one morning. She began tossing
starfish into the sea that had been on the beach from the tide going down. A man
walked up to her and asked her what she was doing."I am throwing the starfish back into the sea," she replied gently.
He looked along the shore and said, "There are thousands of starfish, you
couldn't possibly make a difference."
She looked at him and smiled. She picked up another starfish and tossed it back
in the sea.
"I made a difference to that one," she said with pride.
What I am trying to say is, even if we make the smallest contribution, we are
still making a difference to someone, somewhere. The next time you pass someone
in need, help them. Write a card to someone lonely, give a homeless person a
dollar or two, volunteer for your community. There are so many ways that you can
make someone happy. Although it may not seem like much to you, for somebody else
it could be the world.
Please spread the happiness.
