The Cedar tree enjoyed a moment of satisfaction and attention, but only to experience a greater, more devastating problem. Fear, and sadness tormented the Cedar because of the bad choice it had made. Realizing its folly, the Cedar tree learned a valuable lesson that brought it back to its senses. What was it that was so terrifying to the Cedar that made it change its way of thinking?
