Reflections~ Week 5

I feel like I learn the most when I am creating "my own" piece of work, based on another writer's literature. I enjoyed writing about "The Full Life". As I was writing, it helped remind me of my purpose. I felt good when I had finished writing.
From the learning outcome list, I noticed that I am able to recognize each one and remember reading and writing what it says we will know. One thing I learned that wasn't on the list was that people don't really take the time to "walk" in nature. The busy life makes it difficult for people to relax and enjoy the little things.
Thoreau's essay, "Walking", really makes one want to go out and enjoy nature. Though they don't always have the time, they atleast think about it, and many will hope to have the kind of relationship with nature as Thoreau did.
