Emerson's Stars

[leslierios]

This picture shows how you can be inspired by the beauty of the stars and that you can get rid of all your stress." To go into solitude, a man needs to retire as much from his chamber as from society. I am not solitary while I read and write, though nobody is with me. But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars."( pg241- emerson)

Yes, the watching of a calm night sky filled with stars makes a person calm as well. The act of admiring nature is a very interesting action that not many people take the time to do, yet does who do end up feeling more relaxed. The reason most people do feel relaxed is because nature can take you away from all the problems a person might be dealing with, and it puts you in a position where its only you and nature self . Emerson is totally right when he states that nature can remove anyone from the problems of society.

Yes, as Emerson describes "In the woods we return to reason and faith" nature can be a sanctuary for people a safe heaven to relieve stress or to just let out emotions that you cant do anywhere else. After all nature wont judge you, there is no one with you except almost a presence saying it's alright lets stay here a while.

Yes I agree with the comments above. As soon as I saw this picture my eyes were opened. I felt the peacefulness of the moon in the night sky. I feel this was what Emmerson was trying to say that nature can bring peace and calmness to our souls.
