The Elephant In The Room

There’s a reason why we don’t talk about the elephant in the room. If we hurt the elephant’s feelings, it’s likely to storm off in a huff or get angry and knock us into a wall. Either way, we’ll pay an uncomfortable price.

Sometimes, it’s better to let the elephant roam untethered in blissful, self-assumed anonymity. Let it believe that it’s invisible until it realizes that it isn’t. At that point, it might feel like sitting down for a talk.
