Symbolism:
White = pure, virginity, peace,
Elephants = memory, age, wisdom, clumsy
White Elephants = valuable but difficult (like pregnancy)
Its a gift but also a burden. The story goes that an old King of Siam (Thailand), gave a White Elephant as a gift to his courtiers who were obnoxious. Like a child.. It's a gift that gives you a whole lot of trouble for many years, and it really dosen't give any thing back.
