Transcendentalism

7 Apr

I wanted to live deep and suck out the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartanlike as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if proved to mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meaness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

SONG: You don’t get another chance, life is no Nintendo game As long as the wrong feels right it’s like I’m in flight

EXPLANATION:

 I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not live.

SONG:
 What have we’ve done to the world
Look what we’ve done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son…
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine…
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war

EXPLANATION:

These quotes explain how nature takes an important role on our life and how it can influnce in our decitions. With nature by our sides, we can connect to another kind of living organisms. Other living organisms can influence on what we think and observe. Nature is really important in our lives and we dont value nature as we should. The first quote explains that you need to live life however you want to and theres no need to follow the rules.  People tell you to follow you have only one life to live. If you dont do what you want, you would regret later that you didnt take certain challenges.
