Description
There's a parable about an elephant in a circus, being held in place by a rope tied around its leg. A man walking by takes notice and begins to wonder how these enormous, powerful creatures are so easily constrained. After all, couldn't they break free of the rope by simply pulling on it? He asks an employee of the circus and is told that the elephants have been tied the very same way since they were babies. When they were young, they didn't have the strength to break free. As they got older, they accepted this reality and never realized they had become strong enough to snap the rope and change their situation. This episode is about examining the metaphorical ropes in our lives and how to re-draw those lines in the sand.
