First of all, let me say that the following is, at best, unverified. That being said, I love reading this story so I don’t care. So for those of you who love animal adoption as much as I do, here it is…. the story of Reggie.
Soledad O’Brien tells a wonderful story… about Starfish
January 20, 2014I’m sitting in a talk by Soledad O’Brien on Martin Luther King Day.
She tells a story about a child that sees that the tide has washed up on the shore, thousands of starfish.
So he picks up on and throws it back into the ocean. A man comes by and asks what he’s doing so he explains what happened.
The man says:
“What’s the point? There’s too many on the beach. What you’re doing… it’s not going to matter.”
The child looks down, throws another starfish into the ocean, and says:
“I think it mattered to that one.”
