What were your reasons for taking your

granddaughter out that night and what do

you think she gained from the experience?

Absolutely. The decision to take my

granddaughter out that night stemmed from a
deep desire to inspire her, to bring out the
best side of her. It was her birthday, and I
wanted to gift her something truly special,
something that would create an experience to
treasure, something far beyond the ordinary.
I wanted us to share a moment of
togetherness, to give her hope in a world
often filled with uncertainties. And what
better way to do that than by admiring the
sheer magnificence of an elephant? The
majestic presence of the elephant suggested
strength, resilience, and beauty in its purest
form. It was an adventure waiting to unfold, a
surprise wrapped in the cloak of night.
As we stood there, staring at the elephant, I
could see her eyes light up with wonder and
awe. It was a memory in the making, a
moment frozen in time, where she witnessed
firsthand the extreme resilience of this
magnificent creature. Despite any hurt it may
have endured, the elephant carried on, a
symbol of strength and perseverance.
From this experience, I believe my
granddaughter gained more than just a
memory; she gained a perspective—a
perspective on resilience, on the beauty of
nature, and on the importance of seizing
moments of adventure and surprise in life. It
was a gift of inspiration, a gift that I hope will
stay with her for a lifetime.
