I realize that much of Thoreau is pretty much just riffin' off of Emerson, but still this quote has been on my mind over the last few difficult days.
"I wish so to live ever as to derive my satisfactions and inspirations from the commonest events, everyday phenomena, so what my senses hourly perceive, my daily walk, the conversation of my neighbors, may inspire me, and I may dream of no heaven but that which lies about me."
