The Fir Tree

eBook (Scandinavia Publishing House Aug. 14, 2013) , 1 edition
The fir tree is in such a hurry to grow that it fails to enjoy the beauty around it. All it thinks about is how much it wants to become a tall fir tree and see the wide world and experience new things. It finds no joy in the moment, but is always longing for the future. Finally the fir tree realizes it has wasted its life by living for the future instead of for the present.
