Reading this quote, it made me consider how people that make a change in society are prepared everyday to make a change, and know that they can just because they are prepared from the moment they wake up.  People often think that people who are smart just are, but there are reasons and patterns to how they become intelligent and successful.  While reading, I truly considered what I was doing with how I wake up, and thought of how I can make a change in my patterns so I can potentially help make a change in society, and in my lifestyle.

People walk everywhere, everyday of their lives, and often miss the beauty that is found within a walk.  People see walks as a necessary action to go from point A to point B, and don’t appreciate the place that they are walking in or even the fact that they can walk.  I do agree that we as people should go on walks not as a forced action, but should also do it with adventure and joy in one’s heart as they begin a new expedition.

While reading this quote, it made me think of my childhood and all of the time I spent outside or at the park.  In today’s society, adults are confined to their job, locked away from what nature has to offer.  The children are the one’s who fully appreciate the sunlight, because it allows for them to play, and laugh, and make memories.  The adults can only remember their feelings during days playing in the open without a care in the world, whereas kids are getting their first glimpse.

As I was reading, I stopped and considered what was said.  The process of creating something beautiful is artistic.  In today’s society, people view this in the reverse; the creation of art is beauty.  People see the end result as beautiful, not all of the things that led up to the end result as beautiful.  In my opinion, I would have to agree with the quote that the creation of beauty is art.

Reading this line, it made me consider what things would be in my constitution, and what things would go against it. I thought that my constitution would include my morals and the things that I believe in.  In today’s society many people do not have their own “constitution” and they just listen to what other people say is good for them.  Not enough people have self-reliance, and they just go with what everyone else is doing, rather than thinking for themselves.

In "O Me! O Life!," the author Walt Whitman begs the question,
"... so sad recurring -- What good amid these, O me, O life?"  Whitman recognizes the poor traits of other members of society; some without hope or motives for action, others ill informed or without judgement , and crowds of degenerates all around him.  And out of these people, Whitman asks if there are any decent, moral people out of these groups.  While reading the poem, I sympathized with the feelings of the author; in today's society it seems as though there are so few decent people with a proper conscience.  From the rich, to politicians, and places in between, people work for themselves and their benefit, not for the people that actually require aid; but the answer to this is for you yourself to make a change, and to do what other's are not in society.

In the film Dead Poets Society the poetry teacher Mr. Keating recites the the poem O Me! O Life! to his students, in one of his first interactions with them.  Initially, the students seemed to overlook the interaction, but as the movie progresses, the words of Walt Whitman become more relevant.  Keating pushes his students to think for themselves, and wants them to succeed not only in his class, but as they move on in life.  Additionally, he preaches to his kids, the importance of carpe diem-- to live in the present, think for now, and live life to its fullest potential.  Neil is so inspired by Keating that he auditions for a play that he knows he won’t be able to perform in because his father prohibits him from taking part of things that are a “waste of time,” or not directly tied with the pursuit of a medical career.  But, Neil had such a passion to act that he went through and performed, to delight of his friends and so many onlookers,  literally contributing his verse to society.  In the end though, Neil cannot withstand the pressure that his parents have constantly put upon him, and he kills himself, so he no longer has to conform to what others want for him, and he can “live” for himself.  His “verse” to society came through the incredible friendships that he built and his conviction that  constantly exhibited.

In this world, I want to help people.  I want to be able to make a difference in someone’s life, whether it be small or grand.  Providing aid to people that need it the most is truly rewarding and is highly valued within my family.  In this world, I want to earn the respect of others.  I want to be seen as someone that works hard, makes proper decisions, and be seen as a role model; I do not want to be given anything unless I have earned it.  In this world, I will only provide positivity and counsel, not hate.  The only way that things can get better are through the spread of love and compassion, not the spread of hate and violence.  Words are much more powerful than people think, but they must be used properly: not to initiate a negative action by the opposition, but to try to tell others why you believe the way you do and what actions you can take to make a change.  With my time on this earth, I only want to do optimistic and positive things that have a purpose; Having a purpose on this earth is truly what is most important to me.

The hills strewn with foliage,

The stream drifts steadily over the rocks,

On the horizon the sky bold,

Painting the landscape a vibrant gold.

Our bright star disappears into the earth,

And a quilt of darkness looms above.

The air is brisk and stale,

The rustling of leaves

And the crack of twigs, so frail.

I light snow falls and covers the trail.

With the moon falling from space,

Our sun rises taking its place.

Morning dew rests upon the green grass,

Birds sing their glorious morning melodies,

The creatures awaken taking their responsibilities.

A stack of smoke bellows from the abode,

With a single light in the window.

Yet another glorious display,

The true beauty that exists in nature;

Carpe diem-- seize the day.

I selected a video documentary that captures many different locations in Italy.  As the video starts with a sunrise over the Italian countryside; birds are chirping, and the sun breaks through the clouds.  The video transitions to the city of Venice, showing the packed alleys, and the narrow waterways that are dispersed throughout the city.  It is a tour through the old, packed cities and towns of Italy.  The images are peaceful, and embrace the beauty found within what some may find to be dirty and outdated villas.  To conclude the video, there is a sunset over the Italian countryside, bringing the whole experience full circle.  This video would be a modern example of the transcendental tenet of return to nature and simplicity.  Literally in the video, there is a return to nature from the hustle and energy of city life, presenting a calm and peaceful landscape, with nothing but rolling hills and a painted sky.  The video itself does not focus on the main tourist attractions found within Italy, but more of the charming, seemingly unnoticed aspects of the cities of Italy.  The breathtaking landscapes and lighting help intensify the beauty of the buildings that are depicted.  The things are sought to be simplistic and possibly overlooked are enhanced and become more beautiful with the beautiful lighting.  The video utilizes the best aspects of nature to create a beautiful array of stunning images. The simplicity of some things are modified by the beautiful natural elements.

This hashtag is supposed to be tied along with positive vibes, and the positive actions you can take so you can live your life in the best way possible. So often people get caught up over little things, and sort of become pessimists, continuing to look into the bad and not what good may have come from a situation; no one is perfect, and no outcome will be perfect in every case. Continuing to keep positive if something bad happens, making better decisions for yourself, or trying something new will lead to a life of happiness and appreciation of the life you are living.
