Day 114

http://mostamazingplanet.com/finished-just-greatest-whale-rescue-ending-video-will-leave-speechless/

This video is a little lengthy, but definitely worth watching to see the end result. To summarize, these individuals on a boat helped save this whale's life. As a way to show thanks, the whale performed a 45 minute show including flips, waves, and dives most likely to show gratitude. It gave me the chills to see such a touching, selfless, and difficult task being sought out for the betterment of the whale. These individuals did not give up and they demonstrated this will full conviction. 

Communication is not only the usage of actually speaking words; I argue nonverbal communication has an even greater impact on others than the actual words being spoken. The power of actions and what is not being said speaks louder than anything. In relation to the video, those individuals communicated to the whale they were there to help and not harm the whale; in addition, because the whale was not able to say "thank you", I believe the show and performance communicated a very special thank you to them.
