Features: On a morning after a storm, a man comes to the beach for a walk. He finds many small fish washed ashore by the storm trapped in shallow puddles on the sand. In no time, the water in the puddles will be evaporated by the sun, and the fish will all die. At this moment, he suddenly sees a little boy in front, constantly picking up the small fish from the puddles and throwing them back into the sea with force. He can't help but walk over and ask, "Child, there are hundreds of fish here. You can't save them all."
"I know," the boy replies. "Then why are you still throwing them? Who cares?"
"This little fish matters!" the boy answers, picking up a fish and throwing it back into the sea. "This one matters, this one matters! And this one, and this one."
A heart full of love is as vast as the heavens. A heart filled with love is broader than the sky.
