Simple StoryOne day, a man was walking along the beach. Then he saw a boy picking starfish by the beach and throwing them back into the sea. The man approached the boy and asked, "Little boy, may i know what are you doing?" The little boy looked at the man and replied, "These starfish were swept on shore. I am putting them back into the sea and trying to save them." The man smiled and said, "Well little boy, the beach stretches miles and miles and there are thousands of beach in the world. You cant possibly save all of them." The little boy looked at the man, picked up a starfish and throw it into the sea and smile. "Well, at least i have made a difference to that one," the little boy replied.You know, in our life, there are lots of people out there who are in need of help. We might encounter some of them or heard stories about others from other people. As a little being in such a vast world, we cant possibly save or help everyone but to whoever we have encountered and rendered help, we have actually made a difference to those people. Same goes for a teacher, we cant possibly help every students in the school even though some are too stubborn or rebellious but to those whom we have tried to help, we have made a difference in their lives. This is one philosophy in life that i am holding on to and i hope others can learn something from this.Exam starts today. I hope i have helped those under my 'wings' to excel. All the best. Tomorrow i will be going for my next check up for my collar bone. Hope everything is ok. If not, i have to consider surgery as an option to be fully recovered so that i can start playing soccer competitively again.
