This image connects to the quote because it shows a person enjoying the sunrise and connecting to nature in a simplistic way, expressing tenets of Transcendentalism.]]> 2022-10-04 17:07:11 UTC https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2326136072 3596214 https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345534633 "I think that I cannot preserve my health and spirits, unless I spend four hours a day at least—and it is commonly more than that—sauntering through the woods and over the hills and fields, absolutely free from all worldly engagements" - Thoreau
This image exemplifies the quote because it shows a person walking in a forest and also connects to Transcendentalism because it represents returning to nature.

Most persons do not see the sun. At least they have a very superficial seeing. The sun illuminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and the heart of the child." - Emerson
This picture connects to the quote because it shows nature in a beautiful setting, representing how children see their surroundings, and also connects to Transcendentalism because it offers a setting where isolation to find oneself is possible.]]> 2022-10-18 16:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345535088 3596214 https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345535553 "Thus is Art, a nature passed through the alembic of man. Thus in art, does nature work through the will of a man filled with the beauty of her first works." - Emerson
This image, a work of art, connects to the quote because of how nature is expressed through the will of a man which also connects to Transcendentalism because of the connection to returning to nature.]]> 2022-10-18 16:59:41 UTC https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345535553 3596214 https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345535914 "It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude." - Emerson
This image connects to the quote because it shows a women isolated in a crowded setting, expressing her individualism in a community, which connects to individualism in Transcendentalism.]]> 2022-10-18 16:59:55 UTC https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345535914 3596214 https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345550969 This picture shows a quote from the poem that I consider the most impactful to me. The part where it states that "you are here" really resonated within me because sometimes when I think too much, I wonder if my life, as I am living it, is truly here and not all in my head. Sometimes I will wonder if one day I will wake up and I am not actually a high school student, but still in elementary school and my life was really a dream.]]> 2022-10-18 17:08:02 UTC https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2345550969 3596214 https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2351018921 3) My verse will be about contributing to the world in a positive way the best I can by trying to help people and the environment.  I want to be a psychiatrist because I have always found mental health important and this is also a career I find interesting.  In our modern society, there has been an increased rate in the people diagnosed with depression and anxiety.  These factors lead to a higher suicide rate and I want to do my best to bring help to the people that need it.  I will try to be more considerate of the environment (e.g. what I use, are the brands environmental friendly?) because Earth is slowly breaking down because of humans.  This is what I want to do, helping people and our planet however I can.

Where one is with nature,
Where one needs a great mentality,
When I tried,
How deeply I fell,
Into this rabbit-hole of love,
A relationship that changes from time to time,
Based on my mentality and performance,
How fiercely I loved,
I could also hate.

Trial and error,
One could find themselves or lose themselves,
One competing against themselves,
Learning from your mistakes,
Patience is key,
Where there are times I want to quit,
Yet I stay,
Because this is where I can block out everything,
And focus on myself.

“The government itself, which is only the mode which the people have chosen to execute their will, is equally liable to be abused and perverted before the people can act through it” (Thoreau).
"Society is a joint-stock company, in which the members agree, for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder, to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater” (Thoreau).]]> 2022-10-22 17:38:29 UTC https://padlet.com/3596214/2sw1frpywz1ndsch/wish/2351814746
