IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE ONE OR TWO OR MORE PHOTOS OF WHAT YOU ARE THANKFUL FOR.

There is so much that is sad and unkind and violent in this world but at the same time there is so much that is good too. Whether we can see them or not, the good, the bad and the ugly keep happening. It is not possible for us to help everyone but we can help some people and help them to make their life a better one. I am thankful for all those everyday incidents in life and all those ordinary things which make our life a better one.

    Once upon a time, there was a wise man who used to go to the ocean. He used to walk on the beach before he began his work. One day he was walking along the sand, when, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself to think of someone who would dance like that. He began to walk faster to catch up. As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man who wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the sand, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean. He called out, ” Good morning! What are you doing? ” The young man looked up and replied ” Throwing starfish into the ocean. ” ” I suppose that I should have asked, “Why are you throwing starfish into the ocean? ” ” The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don’t throw them in they’ll die.” ” But young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!” The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked up another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves. ” It made a difference for that one ! “
