This not just a story about a man and an elephant. This story is about a person with no destination, a person with a huge hole through the middle of him.
It took an elephant to fill that hole.
This story is about love, honor, respect, dedication, sacrifice, and a promise. I made a promise to an elephant 30 years ago that I would stay with him until the day he died. And I did just that.
The day Timbo died was the best day of my life.
It was also the worst day because I lost my best friend
Why the best? Because I kept my promise. This outcast from society kept his word. That day I became an honorable man. That day I knew I had done something great.
