Shadows cannot see themselves in the mirror of the sun - Eva Perron..................
Worry gives a small thing a big shadow - Swedish proverb ............................
Take everything that’s bright and beautiful in you and introduce it to the shadow side of yourself… When you are able to say, ‘I am … my shadow as well as my light,’ the shadow’s power is put in service of the good. - Parker J. Palmer........................You can only come to the morning through the shadows. - J.R.R. Tolkien

Gemma, Sorry I've caused problems on comment section. I'm also trying to get my photo to show up with my comment. I don't know why it doesn't show up. I guess I should just comment as Norma Ruttan. thank you for fixing the problem!
I love the way cities have these colorful animal statues. I have seen them in in different areas of Florida and Georgia with turtles and dolphins and in Kentucky with horses. The elephant is so colorful and full of fun faces. Love it!
Great elephant decoration. I saw decorated elephants in Paris and Amsterdam and they were on auction for a good purpose. Looks it is going around the world.
