Heard the story of the girl throwing starfish into the ocean? A man watching her says "don't you know there are miles of beach and you can't make a difference?"
The girl bends down and scoops up another starfish and gently throws it into the ocean, turns to the man and says "it made a difference to that one".
I often think of this story when world events make me feel powerless. I can't help everyone, but I can help *someone*.
So... if anyone needs me to throw them into the sea, I'm here.
