The Wishing Tree

The Wishing Tree

A Story by DrukToby
"

If you had a wish, what would it be?

"


Eons before, when the moon was closest to the earth, every soul was granted an eternal wish. With the condition that each wish had to be unique, so it was almost impossible to think of a wish that hadn't been wished before. 


Many a man had perished without having a wish fulfilled, for their desires were the desires of many. Yet soon this gift inevitably became a curse and people started giving up on their wishes.
But there was one humble man who sought for a higher sense of truth and he vowed to himself to use his wish no matter the consequences. While men sought to violence and greed, he cherished peace and prosperity. 


And so, on a bless-ed day he journeyed to the eternal tree of wisdom to make his wish. "Great one!" he exclaimed. "I wish but a simple wish. My wish to world peace." Ablaze the old eternal tree and it spoke, "Wish granted."
