When I was in high school
My favorite teacher told me this story
And it's stayed with my ever since.
Thank you for letting me know
That I can make a difference
A man was walking along a beach after a storm.
The storm had caused the tide to push a bunch of starfish onto the beach,
So the man was picking them up, and putting them back in the water
As he walked along.
Soon, another man came up to him
And asked why he was doing that.
"You'll never make a difference." he told him.
"The next high tide, they'll be right back up on the beach."
The first man looked at him in silence for a moment
Then he bent down, and picked up another starfish.
He threw it into the water.
"I just made a difference to that one."

Aww, my guess is that it was Nicely.
It was Pancat, RJ.
I just thought of something equally as mushy as the story:
"Amanda, your the one who threw me back into the water."
Wow, mushy x100 for sure...
I try.
Hows it going, I heard from the olive branch about you and Jess.
Wanna talk about it?
You can call me if you need to, I think you still have my number.
I think I'm okay.
thank you for letting me know that i made a difference!
sorry to hear about you and jess
Pancat, I tattooed the difference you made on my body. We're talking about a pretty profound influence here. (I still can't stop the tattooing though...)
