swimming elephants

one of the most blissful things in the world are elephants swimming in the ocean. i saw such things on a documentary about elephants in the andaman islands. if you can find the video (animal planet reveals asia) i urge you to watch it. what it must feel like for the beautiful giants to suddenly feel weightless. amazingly they are extremely graceful swimmers, impishly whispering that they are made for Oceans as much as they are for Jungles.

Awesome, I have to check that out. I keep wondering what whales looked like before they went back to the sea?

My mom says "The fact that the elephants can swim so well might surprise us, we see what we see about them, but who knows what the elephant or other creatures are capable of. They are not limited by how we view them, they are themselves."

yes! you're mom's so smart. and so then also humans must also have all these superpowers when they are truly themselves and not limited by how we see ourselves.
