THAILAND — Today's the type of day when I think we could all use a little break to watch something that's just filled with joy— and that's why this video is so perfect.
The video comes from a place called the Chai Lai Orchid in Thailand, and it shows a baby elephant named Suki cuddling, and sort of wrestling, with a woman. Lest you worry that this baby elephant is hurting the woman as it rolls around and around, the video description made sure we all know that no one got hurt.

Have You Seen This? Swinging with a sheep
Oh would you like to swing with a sheep; maybe laugh so much you might weep."The Chai Lai Orchid is a business that works to rescue elephants and fight human trafficking," the video caption says. "This is the newest baby who was born here and her name is Suki. We are located in Chiang Mai, Thailand. You can support our mission and visit Suki and her family and live with the elephants at our eco-lodge. No humans were harmed in the making of this video."
After seeing this video, visiting Suki sounds like a dream come true. What I love most about the clip is how this little elephant just seems to exude happiness and love. I didn't know it was possible for elephants to exude happiness and love, but once you watch the video, I think you'll understand.
