Starfish Story

Adopted from “The Star Thrower” by Loren Eiseley

A young girl and her grandmother were walking down the beach.
It was a beautiful afternoon and the tide had pulled back leaving
hundreds of starfish stranded on the sand. The girl began to run around,
picking up the starfish and throwing them back into the water. Her
grandmother laughed at her efforts and said...

“Why do you run about?
There are hundreds of starfish and you are wasting your time.
You can't possibly make a difference here.” Her granddaughter stopped,
looked carefully at the starfish in her hand and threw it back into the water.
She said, "Grandma, that may be the case for all of them, but I can make
a difference for that one.”
