If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.
- Chinese proverb
Quick lookback at the story that this blog is named after.....
(If you want to read the whole story, it is posted on the very first blog that I wrote)If the man in the story and any other people on the beach that day would have followed in the boy's footsteps and tossed a starfish back into the ocean --- what a difference all of those people would have made for so many different starfish!
Who is your starfish?
Today's Starfish
At work, a few people in my department have started a walking team for the American Heart Association Heart Walk. Our goal is to walk 800 and some miles between now and June. My friend who is our captain lost her father to heart disease and is raising money for heart disease awareness.
For my Starfish today, I donated $25 to this cause. $25 provides 50 people with educational materials that teach them how to personally reduce their risk for heart disease.
