The Problem With Tree Huggers

Doofus strives to control and master all that comes his way, and accomplishes neither.

Sharpee achieves because he is increasingly aware of the limits to his own capacity.

Explanation: No one person has the skill or experience to manage or accomplish everything that comes his way. That's the problem with "tree huggers." When the tree is small, it is easy to wrap our arms around it and keep it close.  But as it grows, it becomes harder and harder to wrap around it. Eventually, we will no longer be able to keep it within our grasp. If you engage the help of others, the tree can again be circled. Live your life accordingly.
