~*~ The Starfish Story ~*~
Went for my 3rd recruitment talk today. It was conducted by MOE in promotion of the MOE teaching award. Received a goodie bag with a meaningful story on its stick-on notepad and postcard. The Starfish Story goes like this...
As the old man walked the beach at dawn, he noticed a boy ahead of him picking up starfish and flinging them into the sea. Finally catching up with the boy, he asked why he was doing this. The answer was that the stranded starfish would die if left until the morning sun. "But the beach goes on for miles and there are millions of starfish," said the old man. "How can your effort make any difference?" The boy looked at the starfish in his hand and then threw it safely into the waves. "It makes a difference to this one," he said.
After thoughts... A little effort does make a significant difference to a person's life. Many flashbacks of my teachers from primary school, secondary school, JC. How the teachers have touched my life really warms my heart... Happy Belated Teachers' Day to all my teachers!
