Monkey and Jungle

A disclosure of the recent tasteless exchange of emails confirmed the long standing view that you can take a monkey out of the jungle, but you cannot take the jungle out of a monkey. Once born a monkey, stays a monkey. Certain humans are like that. They have the appearance of a human, but their conduct and words are definitely of the simian variety. You take a look at them, and you cannot help but think of filth and feces. To be born as a human is to be born only of potential and possibilities. It's up to the individual to decide to become human or to be stuck as a disgusting, self-mocking monkey. Man is not Essence. He is Possibility and Self-Determination.
