Bloggers Marc & Angel share the story of stopping to talk to a lady that they would run past every Sunday morning on their jog around a lake near their home. Curious as to what she did every week they approached her. At her feet was a metal trap with several turtles walking around it. In her lap was still another turtle; she had a brush and was scrubbing its shell. After their question, the lady explained that algae weakens turtles’ shells, slows them down, and prevents them from absorbing heat. Every week she came out to scrub their shells, making their lives just a little easier. We all make a difference, maybe not all at once or to large groups. But we can approach every day with the purpose that we will make a difference. This week we appreciate community organizations that do just that.
