Solution

I wish I could be an elephant. An elephant’s massive body houses a large heart in itself. I find something extremely majestic about its gait. It places its foot so slowly yet so surely. That’s how I’d like to be when I make decisions. They may be slow, but they would be certain. I love its eyes, for there is softness in them instead of pride. Elephants have always been man’s friends. They have been labouring for mankind for centuries. I would rather work selflessly like an elephant than be selfish as a human. I would live like them in a herd and spend my days eating plants and drinking water: I would have a lot of friends to play with. I would feel safe and protected around beings that are just like me.
