On 1/26 I had the opportunity to go to the Elephant Nature Park, started in 1995 by a native north Thai woman named Lek. Her vision is for a place that elephants can be elephants, not logging workers or beggers sidekicks… The day was filled with putting pineapples, bananas and watermelons in their trunks for, being close, bathing the, in the river, and of course a few photos. It can be a challenge, balancing ‘being in the moment’ and also capturing the experience to share. Today I am grateful someone else caught this moment, because I had put away the camera to just hang out with this beauty. So grateful.

So glad someone captured this picture for you…… Diana you are an inspiration for living in the moment!
This is the most precious picture… Wow.
A sweet caress…. and by the look in his eye, your new friend almost looks like he’s “purring.”
A shared Namaste. I am so envious of this special moment and so glad you had it. This is why I “forget” my camera.
lovely.
Aw, how cute! I do love elephants. No coffee yet? 🙂 Which country is next? You go girl!
I’m in Thailand for a couple more days, and have not seen poo coffee anywhere-must be an (un?)urban legend, girl ;). Thai beaches, then through Malaysia and Singapore and on to New Zealand!
Savor every moment; the pictures are in your mind. That said I do love having a few so I can go along with you on this trip of a lifetime.
I am, Fiddle :). Thanks for being along for the journey!! I have never thought ‘God is so God, and has given/invited me to an amazing life’ more often than this month…
Seeing and experiencing all you are will help you realize the amazing life given for the rest of your life.
For sure.
