43. The elephant hand

When I was very young like 6 or so my dad showed me this.  My dad used his hand and made it into an elephant.  The middle finger acts as a trunk of an elephant and he raised it.  You can make it walk to by lifting each finger or walk side by side lifting two fingers at once.  I remember laughing so hard when I was younger by this.  It fascinated me.  I have continued the legacy and made my friends laugh quite hard too.  I also get some very very strange looks but I don't mind acting like a goof.

I enjoy acting goofy and the looks people give me.  I have come to appreciate myself more and build up confidence by being a little strange or unconventional.  I have learned that creativity is the act same thing... confidence in doing something different and taking the judgement.  To everybody I have shown this to, nobody has said they have seen somebody do it and that makes me happy.  I get a boost of confidence from being unique and creative even if I borrowed the idea from my father.
