It matters to me, too

 I read this on another site, thought it was great and wanted to share.


 


A man walking on the beach saw a little boy tossing starfish back into the ocean.
Seeing that there were thousands of starfish beached, the man went to the little boy and asked him what he was doing. The little boy said he was saving starfish lives. The man asked, " What does it matter ? There are thousands of them on the beach".
The little boy tossed another one in and said "It matters to that one."


Ya'll have a great, sober night..........love and hugs, Doll

I remember this story.  It reminds me that sometimes it takes very little to make a difference in others lives.


Thanks Doll, for that positive thought.
