Mimi & Eunice's Facebook Page
Because Facebook refuses to make thumbnails of linked horizontal images, I upload each one manually here. It’s the only way to share Mimi & Eunice comics on FB, unfortunately.
A girl saw starfishes on a beach, washed ashore by the waves. So she picked one up, and threw it into the ocean. Then she picked another, and another…
A man went up to her and said, “What are you doing?”
“I’m getting these starfishes back to the ocean. Otherwise they’ll all die.” She picked up another one.
“Look at them! There are hundreds, maybe thousands of them. People are just trampling them as they walk. What difference does it make? There’s certainly no way you can throw them all back.”
She looked a while at the one in her hand.
“It makes a difference to this one,” she said, as she held it high and then threw it into the water.
That’s lovely. Small things matter.
I recall seeing, in RMS’s FSF office at MIT I think, a bumper-sticker reading:
God is in the details, absolutely.
Indeed. We don’t matter to the universe, but that doesn’t matter. We matter to each other. That’s what counts.
