We can find inspiration in the most unlikely places.  Maybe it's from an impacting sermon, encouragement from a song, or even the kindness of a stranger.  But inspiring lessons can be found far beyond humans and reach deep into our lives via the unconditional love of an animal.  

I felt this heart lesson when I heard of the story of Tara and Bella. It's a story of two best friends who share all the wonderful aspects of what friendship is made up of. They spend all their time with one another, enjoy each others company and worry about the other when one is hurting.  The amazing part of this story is that Tara is an Elephant and Bella her best friend is a stray dog.  

When hearing of their endearing story, I was deeply moved. Could it be possible that an elephant and a stray dog have something to teach you and I?  Tara and Bella display the beauty of friendship that crosses all boundaries.  It holds no prejudice, has complete acceptance of differences and is centered around the one thing that will always keep a friendship alive...Love.  

May the story of Tara and Bella spur us on to celebrate the friendships and loved ones in our lives.
