Elephants.

Last night I had a dream that I was travelling on a highway on an elephant’s back.

We were the only elephant on the highway. Everything else was cars and everything else about the highway was normal.

There was an elephant guide in front and there were four of us in the back.

Everybody was asleep except me looking at the road. Then suddenly the guide fell asleep too and I noticed that we were suddenly going the wrong way on the highway.

All the cars were swerving and honking to avoid us and the elephant was stumping along. The guide wouldn’t wake up and I couldn’t reach the reigns from where I was ( not that I had any idea how to use the reigns to guide the elephant!).

Somehow, I managed to get the elephant to “pull over” and the guide and everyone else woke up and couldn’t believe what had just happened.

Everyone was congratulating me and saying how lucky they were that I was the only one who had not fallen asleep and that I noticed we were going the wrong way on the highway.

I couldn’t understand why I was a hero for being awake but I was grateful to be alive.
