Remake of Walden by Christopher Avila-Torres

to front life

4804185021_ — 2023-11-13 13:12:22 UTC

he states that we wishes to front the essential facts of life, he wishes to take on natures challenges by hand and to live deliberately.

to live deep, and suck out all the marrow of life

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 12:44:35 UTC

he wishes to live in the present moment and enjoy and bask in all that life has to offer

still we live meanly

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 12:52:14 UTC

like ants henry states we live life how others want us too

fighting with cranes

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 12:53:21 UTC

we all fight for meaningless things "error upon error" henry states, instead of cherishing one another.

ten fingers

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 12:55:55 UTC

a man doesnt need to count more then his ten fingers, an honest man should never have to recount for his lies and therefore has a simpler life.

chopping sea of civilized life

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 13:04:37 UTC

if a man doesnt put up with the restrictions and the challeges of the civilized life, 'by dead reckoning" he states, and he must always be a good person no matter how down he feels, he compares these challenges to storms and quicksand, like how life can be calm one moment then storming the next, but throughout all this you must remain a good person if you wish to succeed

why do we live in such a hurry

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 13:08:15 UTC

henry asks why do we live in a hurry and waste of life, why do we rush past the wonders of life? as if "to be starved before we are hungry" why do we want to rush life when we can take it slowly and admire all the things nature has to offer

stitch in time saves nine

4804185021_ — 2023-11-14 13:09:28 UTC

henry states that man should solve the problem right away then to let it become a bigger one

i have always been regretting that i was not as wise as the day i was born

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:41:20 UTC

he persist that he misses the pureness he used to have, how he didnt have to conform to nature or their rules and could just be free.

river of time

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:43:23 UTC

henry compares time to a river from which he drinks from, how its shallow and thin but yet it remains on flowing

a delicous good

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:45:57 UTC

he says theres nothing better then a happy and beautiful morning

walk along the stony shore

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:48:25 UTC

even in the stillness of nature he still enjoys her quite and beautiful sights

my breath

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:54:03 UTC

while looking at nature he almost cant beleive how beatiful it is as his breath is taken away by its sympathy

lonesome

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:55:34 UTC

he ponders the thought as to why should he feel lonley? when hes never truly alone

space

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:56:46 UTC

why should a man be seperate from his fellow peers and stay in solitude

i am still one

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:57:43 UTC

even in the blissfulness of nature his serenity is rippled but not ruffled as he states, which shows how gentle nature is

even at night

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 12:59:44 UTC

even at night nature still is full of life a noise, with the wind and water, with the crickets chirping.

even nature has its watchmen

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 13:00:33 UTC

at night animals can come out without fear and seek their prey without fear

why so far?

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 13:02:10 UTC

he questions how far should a man be from another until hes considered "alone" a house down? a city down? a planet? a solar system? perhaps over the galaxy?

liberty

4804185021_ — 2023-11-15 13:03:29 UTC

he says he goes and comes with a strange liberty in nature, he goes with the strange things nature has to offer and appriciates her

every pond

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:34:03 UTC

every pond before winter was so sensative that even a breath would make it tremble

winter

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:34:31 UTC

when winter comes the pond suddenly becomes hard enough to carry a team of people

like an eye

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:34:57 UTC

as winter comes the pong freezes as if the woods are closing its eyes to sleep

it sleeps

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:38:45 UTC

the woods ponds freeze as if the woods become dormant for three months

i step in the snow

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:40:12 UTC

the snow covers the woods almost like pasture

through the ice

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:41:12 UTC

looking down at the ice he sees the fishes under them, the ice acting almost like a blanket to them

the sand at the bottom

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:42:01 UTC

the sand at the bottom shines with serenity like the beautifull amber sky

the snow disguises

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:42:53 UTC

the snow covering the forest floor making it all look the same

the pond covers

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:43:56 UTC

even in the most severe times nature always keeps its inhabitants warm in this cold winter

heaven as above is also below

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:45:02 UTC

henry says that heaven is both above and below us as both show how beautiful life can be

attraction

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:50:18 UTC

one attraction henry can look foward too is spring.

it melts

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:50:45 UTC

the ice becomes honey combed as if the forest is opening its eyes after a long sleep

spring has come

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:54:58 UTC

he hears the sounds of bird chirping, the days getting longer, the sun getting warmer.

the change from stormy to sunny

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 12:56:47 UTC

henry says the changing from stormy to bright and serene is something to behold your eyes upon

light fills my home

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 13:01:15 UTC

he stares outside and no more is the sluggish grey sky but now a bright and calm evening sky shines

we can never have enough nature

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 13:03:47 UTC

henry says we should all be refreshed by the sight of nature

our limits

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 13:06:04 UTC

we should all witness our own limits by nature and where we cant go as to know how much we can do

innocence

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 13:10:02 UTC

a way to impress somone is to show that you are truly innocent

a sacrafice for nature

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 13:12:12 UTC

for nature life is so rife that even those who live in it will sacrafice for it

the snow is gone

4804185021_ — 2023-11-16 13:13:36 UTC

the snow and ice that once ruled the forest melts and vanishes almost as the forests blanket has been ripped off on a bright warm morning

henry leaving walden

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 12:39:55 UTC

he says we all have many lives and his life in the woods was done so he left the forest and went back to society

he hears a diffrent summer

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 12:50:06 UTC

henry says that if he cant keep up with the pace of his friends then he is not the same as them

if one advances toward his dream

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 12:55:54 UTC

if you follow your dreams you will eventually see success

a castle in the sky

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 12:57:32 UTC

even if your dream is so farout of reach like a castle in the sky dont fret build a foundation under it

how ever mean life is

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 13:01:44 UTC

no matter what life throws at you keep moving foward

towns poor seem to me often to live

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 13:07:36 UTC

he believes that poor people often live the most independent life of any as they dont have to receive without misgiving

the life in us like the water in the river

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 13:12:37 UTC

life is like a river constantly moving

we not be a shipwreck on a vain reality

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 13:13:10 UTC

we must not wind up stuck in life without a purpose

happiness poorhouse

4804185021_ — 2023-11-27 13:17:47 UTC

even in a poor life you can still be happy

things do not change; we change

4804185021_ — 2023-11-28 12:24:46 UTC

henry says that a person changes not by what they are wearing but by who they are inside
