Day 3 of the Jesse Tree is a symbol for the fall of Man, the choosing to follow our own will rather than God's will. That needs to be fleshed out because God's will is what will make us happiest and should be our will. When we choose our "will", we are acting on impulse, emotionally, not taking the full picture into account. We may be making ourselves temporarily happy but we won't achieve lasting happiness without acting in accordance with how God made us.
