[Motivation] Little Things Can Make A Big Difference

There was a young man taking a morning walk at the beach. He saw that along with the morning tide came hundreds of starfish and when the tide receded, they were left behind. He noticed that the tide was fresh and the starfish were alive and with the morning sun rays, they would die.

The man walked up to where they laid, picked one and threw it into the water. He did that repeatedly. Right behind him there was another person who couldn't understand what this man was doing. He caught up with him and asked, "What are you doing? There are hundreds of starfish. How many can you help? What difference does it make?" This man did not reply, took two steps farther, picked up another one, threw it into the water, and said, "It makes a difference to this one."

Moral:

What difference are we making? Big or small, it does not matter. What matters is that a difference is being made. The old turns to new. However, if everyone made a small difference, we would end up with a big difference, wouldn't we?
