And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had

Very simple. You hollow out a coconut shell, and drill a small hole in it. Inside it, you put some sweet food and attach the shell to a tree or a stake in the ground.
The monkey, when it comes sniffing around again, will be drawn to the sweet food in the coconut shell. Very quickly, it will reach in and grab the food.
Now, the hole is big enough for its hand to enter, but too small for the clenched fist, clutching the food, to pull out.
When you show upm the monkey will get frantic, but it won't open up its fist to let go of the food, even though the the simple act will set him free.
And you've got your little thief.
like the monkey, we often do not know how to let go - of a notion, or desire, or a person, or an object - even when it is in our best interest to do so.
So we get trapped, and the more frantic we become, the more tightly we cling on to what we should let go of, in order to be free and to move on.
Clinging not only holds us back, it makes for much anguish and anxiety, then helplessness and depression, and finally, self-destruction.
Biologists have a term for this - apoptosis. It's a firecracker string of self-destruct routines pre-programmed into nearly every living cell. Its fuse is lit when it receives signals that it is no longer useful.
But why do we need to change our ways? If it isn't broken, why fix it?
Because we are transiting from an era which was best served by order and conformity, to one which thrives on some messiness and non-conformity.
Damn the older generation, to place us in this fix. Damn damn damn damn! Well, I got that above excerpt from the Straits Times, Life! section. Hope you enjoyed it.

You might be living in my neighbourhood, or some other town or country far away. I don't know. And neither do you, at this point.
Wherever you are, I know I'll find you... if you don't find me first.
It's just a matter of time.
