The appreciation of every new day in its "auroral hour" gives a chance for individualism because of how one is strengthened in finding the goodness of man as one strives to live an impactful and "noble life".

Walking improves the heart and the mind as it creates a new outlook on life because of the callouses it produces within its experiences in walking with one's own thoughts; a break from the conformities of walking on an already set path.

Nature shows its face daily, but those who take it for granted will never appreciate how its tranquil presence and thoughts merge with one's own to create a peaceful, simple equilibrium.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

The greatest form of love is imitation, but as one imitates, they also find individuality in the way their love is displayed.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

To live independently is not for the light-hearted because one will be faced with temptations to follow instead of leading one's own life every day.

You don't know how to fly

You don't know how to decide

Now you don't even know how to dream

Open your eyes, eyes, eyes

Everyone, now dance, dance, dance

Now, dream, dream, dream again

Don't move slowly, don't hesitate, wassup!

- No More Dream - BTS Debut Song (Translated)

Society has conditioned one to conform to society forcing them to give up their dreams leaving them unable to think for themselves, but by rejecting society, one will learn how to fly again.

-John Keating

If every step does not leave flowers in its wake, there will be no garden for the casket to lay in.

Go, go, go, go.

No rest.

There is so much to do and so little time to do it.

Will everything get done?

Oh, shoot.

I haven't talked to my family.

When will I have time to do that?

There aren't enough hours in a day.

I need to do more so I can be more.

Do more, be more, do more, be more.

Walking outside, head down.

I hear rusting and look up.

The sun is shining through the trees.

The flowers catch my eye; they look iridescent in this light.

Air sweeps over my face forcing me to breathe the crisp air that slowly fills my lungs.

Breathe.

I close my eyes to hear the birds chirping and the trees swaying.

I open my eyes and, past the flowers, see squirrels far away, looking at the acorns scattered by my feet.

My hand extended in their direction now with acorns in them to give as an offering.

As they inched closer any hesitation was slowly filled with joy.

It gave me joy too.

We were going to be friends.

I think I'll stay here for a while.

Thesis: Modern society's personal development, social responsibility, and environmental consciousness continue to be impacted through the pertinent transcendental ideas of nature, self-reliance, and individuality.

Quote 1: "...the sun is similar to one opening one's eyes to see the light in a day and just like the sun shines brightly every day, one should strive to appreciate and make the most out of each day to develop the mind and soul"

Quote 2: "...the sound of the waves crashing into each other and then disappearing also helps their mind shuffle out all of the tension they have."

Quote 3: "Even if all else fails, transcendentalism will continue to give hope through difficult times and cause breakthroughs within society."
