When I read this little story this morning, I thought about the political passivity of many Cubans on the island …. you may not know this story .. and maybe you are interested in to your blog.

A circus trainer to keep an elephant gets trapped because it uses a simple trick: when the animal is still a baby, one leg tied to a very big trunk.

For more you try, the little elephant gets loose. Gradually gets used to the idea that the trunk is more powerful than that.

By becoming an adult, and owns a huge force, just a rope encircling the leg of the elephant and tie to a stake, and not to try to get loose, because he remembers that and I try many times and failed. wireless internet providers

Like elephants, our feet are also tied to something small, such as children, we got used to the power of that log, we dare not do anything.

Without knowing that just a simple gesture of courage to see all our freedom.
