Through ordinary gestures that carry the weight of the infinite. Real transformation rarely arrives with fanfare; it often begins in silence, with one small act of love. At dawn, an old man walked along a beach where the tide had abandoned thousands of starfish. The sun was rising, gilding the sand in a light both gentle and ancient. Among the starfish he saw a young boy, unhurried, lifting them one by one and returning them to the sea. He moved as if performing a sacred ritual, saving the world heartbeat by heartbeat. The old man approached. “What are you doing?” he asked. Without looking up, the boy whispered, “The tide washed them up. If I don’t throw them back, they’ll die when the sun grows strong.” The old man gazed across the shore, heavy with helplessness. “But there are thousands. ...
