Le Sapin: Un conte de Hans Christian Andersen

The Fir Tree feels so universal in its reflection on vanity and contentment. I wonder if Andersen drew from personal experiences or folklore traditions.

Its transformation from pride to acceptance really resonated with me, but also made me reflect on our own life cycles. Did others find it inspiring or a bit sad?

In a world obsessed with appearances, this story still feels relevant. I’m curious whether readers see it as a timeless lesson or something more nostalgic.
