I WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE & IT ONLY TAKES A SPARK TO GET THE FIRE BURNING. There is a story about a boy with his dad walking on a beach loaded with starfish that had just washed on to shore. Hundreds and maybe thousands of starfish certain to dry out and die. The little boy gleefully started to throw the starfish back into the water to give them new life saying, Come on dad, lets make a difference. The father, who was certainly more wise and knowledgeable, as well as practical, smiled and with a little pity in his voice tried to reason with his boy saying, Son, there are far too many for us to save. I know you mean well, but how can you really expect to make a difference? Undaunted by his father’s superior logic and valid argument, the little boy picked up a starfish, looked intently at it – then threw it into the water as far as he could. Smiling to his dad and with genuine pleasure he replied, Well…we made a difference for that one!I WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
