Between the forests, there was a place with minimal sunlight. In that dim space, stood a lonely hut — where a woodcutter lived, deep in the darkness of the forest.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxJ1fTCAR8
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZnieoi8bW
He had no desires, except one: he longed to see what lay beyond the forest.
He wished to go beyond the darkness and feel the warmth of the sun.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkgKRayRkj
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9wX95j8s6
He was curious about the world — what it looked like beyond the trees.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N0CEYAGAv
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWtRfZkDxJ
He lived in a place where trees fell and grew again, but he didn’t know how to move beyond what he had always known.
One day, a witch appeared in his hut. She laughed gently and said she was a good witch.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwcC2PNzXq
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAY773Yvna
The woodcutter was shocked — he had never seen anyone like her.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt80jzbE1Fo
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XOurfkQ9G
Full of fear, confusion, and wonder, he asked:33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxaG0B6LhQ
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTWZ9Vf94q
"Why are you here? Do you want to kill me? I didn’t do anything."
She replied kindly,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiBR9RD0p4
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVyzQW4cjW
"My boy, I am a good witch. Don’t be afraid. I’ve come to show you the vast world.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70kQx31v1k
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXPOxzxiQX
Do you know how big it is? The sun, the warmth you want to feel — I can take you there.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxUhD9Dck5
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39uVQQSwWx
Do you know what lies beyond this forest?"
"I don’t know," he said, "Is there really a beautiful world like that?"
She smiled.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdbR2idkTp
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV45fNZTRnU
"Yes, my boy. A world more beautiful and better than the one where you live."
He felt hope rise in him. Curious and excited, he asked,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpwXGZleXD
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIpx7haPpA
"How can I go beyond this forest?"
She answered,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDU6IWd7ii
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1ttrIzCsL
"I can take you there, my boy. But you need to sacrifice something."
Just then, another witch appeared — claiming she too was a good witch.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNV3KqMCYT
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iiIYraTxN
The two began to argue about who the real good witch was.
The second witch said,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUABD4CyOt
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjw3QaQzVj
"You shouldn’t go anywhere. It’s not the right time.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXC2HtYXgW
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPFfkHjMsT
I’m here to protect you from her.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoOo5UmaeQ
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7qh6vQsdH
You are not ready for the world outside.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUCqCyfme8
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgH7Gwotu2
If you go now, you may not survive. You need to prepare.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZVVe9T6RG
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfJp3mfipy
Once you're capable, you’ll reach the outside without sacrificing anything."
The first witch responded,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Rr8a9qNyk
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBss3KYYZ9
"If you never go outside, how will you know?33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2nQLnDRUe
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzMtsJB51B
You need to face it to conquer it. You only need to sacrifice your stillness."
The second witch protested,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCgj4MT6il
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7NwvRAUBE
"She’s trying to take away your comfort. Then what?"
The woodcutter hesitated.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CRKO1FrgF
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEFYgR9ScB
If I go outside and face danger, he thought, I won’t be able to return to this quiet life.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheh6KRe79a
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvivfcDkLC
Maybe I should prepare first...
The second witch reassured him,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXaFy1hCFf
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7bdqHjIjx
"I’ll help you become capable of facing the world."
So, he listened to her. He prepared, trained, learned.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rYQ1rkxyl
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDZ749ZRSq
But every time he thought he was ready, she would say,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivit3Nv05N
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVDCUROahl
"Just a little more."
And with each delay, he lost a little more confidence —33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIsTDUfLUl
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckFxoZvTUg
Until one day, he didn’t believe he could ever go.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqzC58CG5G
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUZEPQzhi7
He became restless, stressed, and heavy with pressure.
Then one day, the first witch appeared again.
She said,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK81HXgevIa
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tsJXfYwsI
"If you want to look beyond, you must sacrifice your stillness.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7IEFB0Gpg
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo0wtc6IIy
With that, you can achieve anything."
But he had already lost hope.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LEqMIvFee
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTqGBRfgZ4
He no longer believed he could do anything.
The first witch gently said,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfUD5hQCfF
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTzi4xsdAH
"If you stay afraid, you never will.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfc6BsnLEM
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxM9D8sDx7
But one step — just one step — can give you the feeling of wholeness."
He took her advice.
With shaky confidence, he stepped forward.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3KTdGJ9n9
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjRGRzqUtU
And that first step gave him strength to take another.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb7MCgzZXU
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcJQU9Nhow
He crossed the entire jungle — and finally, he felt the warmth of the sun.
He had only taken his first step,33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GkI5Hrswf
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEiEeU7Xfb
But already, he was confident.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyejDrXXgx
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9WoXqDEbc
He was ready to take more.
