Yazı yazmak için okyanus sahillerine gidenbir yazar, sabaha karşı kumsalda dans edergibi hareketler yapan birini görür.
Biraz yaklaşınca , bu kişinin sahile vuran deniz yıldızlarını, okyanusa atan genç biradam olduğunu fark eder.
Genç adama yaklaşır:- Neden denizyıldızlarını okyanusa atıyorsun?
Genç adam yanıtlar;-
Birazdan güneş yükselip, sular çekilecek.Onları suya atmazsam ölecekler.
Yazar sorar;- Kilometrelerce sahil , binlerce denizyıldızı var.Ne fark eder ki?
Genç adam eğilir, yerden bir deniz yıldızı daha alır, okyanusa fırlatır.-
Onun için fark etti ama...
The Starfish Story
A young girl was walking along a beach upon which thousands of starfish had been washed up during a terrible storm. When she came to each starfish, she would pick it up, and throw it back into the ocean. People watched her with amusement.
She had been doing this for some time when a man approached her and said, “Little girl, why are you doing this? Look at this beach! You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!”
The girl seemed crushed, suddenly deflated. But after a few moments, she bent down, picked up another starfish, and hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied,
“Well, I made a difference to that one!”
The old man looked at the girl inquisitively and thought about what she had done and said. Inspired, he joined the little girl in throwing starfish back into the sea. Soon others joined, and all the starfish were saved. - adapted from the Star Thrower by Loren C. Eiseley
