The reason why I chose the two pictures with the food, is because in the essay Emerson stated that “Food is one of the necessities that we need in order to survive.” And he also said that “It is also important to the giver and the person who is receiving it. Emerson also stated that “Food is a way to say welcome and food has that balance.” Emerson also states in the essay that “Food is a reward.” In the first paragraph, in the middle of the second sentence, Emerson said “I do not think this general insolvency, which involved in some sort of all the population, to be the reason of the difficulty experienced at Christmas and New Year, and other times, in bestowing gifts; since it is always so pleasant to be generous, though very vexatious to pay debts.” And the reason why I chose the other picture with the picture of a flower, is because in the essay Emerson stated that “Flowers are natural and there part of nature.” And that “It is important to the giver and the person who is receiving it.” Flowers also show affection and love. Emerson also said “We all can give and receive love. In the essay Emerson stated that “Flowers and fruits are always fit presents-flowers, because they are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty, outvalues all the utilities of the world.” Emerson also states that “These gay natures contrast with the somewhat stern countenance of ordinary nature; they are like music heard out of a workhouse. Yet these delicate flowers look like the frolic and interference of love and beauty.”

Standing on the bare ground - my head bathed by the blithe air and uplifted into infinite space-all mean egotism
