Keiki is a 6’4″ gorilla with a bad temper. Sounds like a lot of people these days after the first wave of the recession. Smart people, like gorillas, found sanctuaries in their friends and lost a few acquaintences since 2009. We all have some stories to tell about how we have changed in the last few years.
Keiki’s story starts when his realtors wanted to make him more comfortable. There were a lot of people who thought that was a bad idea. They thought Keiki would hurt himself if he had trees and sky and a stream. They said he would get sick. The realtors said ignore them and they finally got the better enclosure for Keiki.
When Keiki came to the open door, it was a tense hour as the realtors watched through the glass. He looked out for a long time at his new world. Then slowly he walked over to the stream and sat down. He looked at his face for the first time and then he looked up at the sky. After a long while he walked over to the glass and looked at his realtors. Then he buried his arm deep into the sand and pulled out a giant chunk of concrete. The realtors gasped. They had told the contractors not to leave any debri. Keiki held the concrete high in the air over his head brandishing it at the realtors. In the end he threw it down and turned away. He walked back to the stream and lay on his back. The other gorillas. came running out and surrounded Keiki. The baby started playing on his stomach. The new world was a success.
The realtors breathed a huge sigh of relief. Hug your realtor today – he or she is working very hard for you!
