Today's Inspiration

Sometimes it gets tiring, and you can feel like stopping.  Today I read this (not for the first time), and remembered why we try again day after day:

"There’d been a storm, and tens of thousands of starfish had been washed onto a beach. A man walked the beach, saddened to see all the dying creatures. Up ahead, he saw another man. The man was tossing starfish back into the ocean.

“You can’t save all these starfish,” the first man said. “What does it matter?”

The second man turned to the first. He leaned over, picked up a starfish, and cast it into the sea.

“Well,” he told the first man, “it mattered to that one.”

I'm now recommitted to working hard and making a difference, helping people one at a time.  Just because it's not about changing the world, but about helping people change their world.
