Ever since I was a little girl‚ when asked the pondering question of whom I wanted to become when I grew up‚ I always found it quite methodical. Now of course‚ these feelings can’t completly be for keeps due to the immense amount of surrounding exposure. Although‚ I did believe that each individual had been given distict knowledge and ability to make this world per say‚ your "personal playground"; that of what you believed. As a child‚ we are all born pure with no predicatable intentions.

In the excerpt from the second chapter of Walden titled “Where I Lived and What I Lived For‚” Thoreau crafts an intricate argument which advocates for self-realization within every individual. The specific quote I chose from the excerpt struck me deeply as the rhetoric question that is produced at the beginning of it explains how I feel on most days as I give “so poor an account” of my day each night. Continually throughout my life‚ I have gone through the motions of a typical day with the structure

I have always known my brother was different. From the day he was born he was hooked up on beeping machines and glow fingers‚ he wasn’t on them for very long but enough to make me always remember the way they sounded. I knew he had a scar on his chest‚ I knew he looked different from me. I always just wanted to know why. I would never know why until middle school.

Rebecca Solnit translates Thoreau’s writing into something that contemporary readers can relate to and understand based on how they currently live and what they rely on in the modern world. She does so by

When Walden was published during the nineteenth century‚ the reactions of people were exceedingly different than they are of modern society. These reactions were towards every aspect of Thoreau and altered with every change in time. The foremost reactions toward Henry David Thoreau occurred when he went to live on his own at Walden Pond. As strange as it may seem‚ some critics think that Thoreau’s choice to live at Walden Pond was simply because he was a hermit. However‚ his sheltered life was

drives the world‚ however may the world be driving the money? Henry David Thoreau was born on July 12‚ 1817. He wrote many famous pieces‚ Civil Disobedience stands out for its steadfast statements and theories on the government machine. Notably where he writes “Absolutely speaking‚ the more money‚ the less virtue; for money comes between a man and his objects‚ and obtains them for him; and It was certainly no great virtue to obtain it” (Thoreau 231) stands out due to its factual way of explaining how
