"Don't look where you fall, but where you slipped."
~ African Proverb ~
There's a story about a monkey trap.
The trap is a hollow coconut with a rope tied to one end,
A hole at the other end,
And a banana inside.
The monkey sees the banana and reaches in for it.
His hand slips easily through the hole.
But when he grabs the banana and wants to pull it out,
His fist won't fit,
And he's trapped...
Unless he's smart enough to let go.
I relax my grip on things.
