There was a dead tree trunk by the road. At night, a thief passed by him and got scared - he thought that it was a policeman standing waiting for him. A young man in love passed by, and his heart beat joyfully: he mistook the tree for his beloved. The child, frightened by fairy tales, saw the tree and burst into tears: it seemed to him that it was a ghost.
But in all cases the tree was just a tree.
We see the world as we ourselves are.
