I wanted to share this story about an elephant sanctuary in Tennessee. I wanted to show people here something beautiful and rare. This video is both of these things and more. It’s inspiring.
As an anti-war advocate, I usually end up reading more about war than peace. Conflict is usually more frequent than resolution. Since last year when the recession became official, I’ve read stories about people who have stolen, lied, and killed.
I wish we could be like the animals in this video: free, running wild, and helping each other while pooping freely in the grassy terrains. Please be kind to each other. Don’t accuse, don’t be passive aggressive, tell people you love them, if you don’t then don’t say anything at all! Everyone, rich and poor is hurting right now more than ever. People are so uncertain and worried but also greedy and resentful.
I usually think human beings are very overrated. We have so much “intelligence” and what good use have we put it to? Swiss banking and Rolex watches? The good things in life are free, but they would be more valuable if everyone started seeing them that way! Kindness, friendship, and love are what will carry you through a hard time, but hopefully your entire life.
These animals aren’t different than us, but I think they are much more honest. Good luck to you all. I hope you’re not suffering during this hard economy.
