Once upon a time, there was a happy monkey in the forest, eating delicious fruit when hungry and resting when tired.

One day he got up very early and came to a house, where he saw a bunch of the most beautiful bananas he had ever seen. He took one in each hand and ran back into the forest. He sniffed the bananas but smelled nothing. He tried to eat them but hurt his teeth. The bananas were made of wood, but they were beautiful. When he saw other monkeys, he held on them even tighter (牢牢地). The little monkey took great pride in his bananas. He loved them so much that he didn’t even notice his hunger (饥饿) at first. A fruit tree reminded (提醒) him about but he didn’t want to put down the wooden apples. In fact, he couldn’t relax, either. He couldn’t climb trees to get fruit with his hands full, so a proud but less happy monkey kept walking around.

What if he just lets go? Letting go such valuable things seemed crazy, but what else could he do? He was so hungry. Seeing the next fruit tree, he dropped the wooden apples to have breakfast. He became happy again.

Like that little monkey, we sometimes carry things that seem too valuable to let go. If the monkey hadn’t let the wooden bananas go, he might have been found dead of hunger, under a beautiful fruit tree, with his wooden bananas in his hands
