1A - Quote: "Where I Lived and What I Lived For"

# data[].attributes.body
"I say, let your affairs be as two or three, and not a hundred or a thousand; instead of a million count half a dozen and keep your accounts on your thumb-nail." - Henry David Thoreau.
-
This quote displays the second tenet of transcendentalism because Thoreau wants people to live a life that is focused on a few things that concern themselves not the hundreds of things going on in the outer world.

2A - "O Me! O Life!" and Dead Poet's Society Reaction

# data[].attributes.body
Walter Whitman´s ¨O Me! O Life¨ was a piece that essentially asked what the purpose of living was. Whitman answers his question and shockingly declared that it doesn't matter how ridiculous something is. What matters is simply contributing. Similarly, in Dead Poet´s Society the motivation of Carpe Diem or seize the day gives the same advice of doing something for the sake of doing it.

Follow your intuition and do what you know is true.

I will contribute to the powerful play that goes thundering on by involving myself in as many genres as I can. No actor should be typecast into one role. The only way to make a meaningful impact is to experience everything possible. A life of routine is easily forgettable and my verse will be the discarded draft from the beginning of a symphony never to be sung. I don't want a story of "almost" and "what-ifs" of events I could have experienced. My verse will be the firm decisions and confident choices that become the bellowing voice inspiring others to leave their routine and take control of their own life.

City lights are all you've known
But city lights aren't all you're shown
Look beyond the city
Look into those unknowns
There you'll find your remedy
There you'll find humanity
Your city's filled by millions
But you have no community.
You need not travel to Brazilians
With costly sights worth billions
Go beyond the city
To see inner rebellions

Run from the world's authority
To get to live deliberately
Leave the ones and zeros
To get to live freely
Leave behind your lows
Beyond the city you chose
Head to the sun
Follow as it glows
One last light till you´re done
Till you rest from your run
Beyond the city you know
Quick there´s only one

Here you can slow
Watch colors lit aglow
Rest and reflect
On all that you know
You´ll find the affect
Of city life unchecked
Find yourself here
Your thoughts will collect
The truth is so near
Your intuition so clear
Since you left the city held dear
Since you left the city held dear

5 - Modern-Day Example of Transcendentalism

# data[].attributes.body
In modern society we still have elements of the transcendental movement today with art movements like the minimalism shown in Bernard Simunovic which reflect the desire to become simplified and allows focus more on intuitive concepts rather than detailed realism.

In order to truly get in touch with their own thoughts a person must make time to transcend that is not interfered with by the rest of their schedule.

- In the largest picture on the left I am feeling the sun on my face and settling in to nature.
- In the top right photo a friend captured me covering my eyes as I try to attempt meditation.
- In the bottom right photo I am looking down at my friend as we discuss how we felt at the end of our time in nature.
These photos all relate to transcendentalism because although I was with a friend we each tried to enjoy the scenery individually and come up with our own thoughts about it.

A big challenge to being able to enjoy transcendentalism is the inability to be self-reliant and the increasing global collaboration.
