walking throught the zoo the other day, I looked deep into the eyes of the caged animals, how sad and lonely they all looked. Now i want you to know I have noticed this before but always chalked it off to ...Becky stop putting human emotions into the eyes of animals. They are full and lathargic, in need of a nap. thats all! Until.... I looked into the eyes of an elephant and saw tear after tear run down her majestic face. She was not full, her heart ached. Not only could you see it but honestly you could feel it! I found myself wiping away my own tears wishing I could in some way wipe hers and make the pain of iosolation the lonliness and want disappear from her heart her soul. As I stood there held hostage in her gaze she outstreatched her trunk to me I in return outstretched my hand to her and patted her gently for one split moment we were unitited in understanding ....we are not to different after all.
