"Most men, even in this comparatively free country, through mere ignorance and mistake, are so occupied with the factitious cares and superfluously coarse labors of life that its finer fruits cannot be plucked by them."
-Henry David Thoreau
Basically this is just a really fancy way of saying that a lot of people get much too focused on the things in life that ultimately wont matter at your death bed! People can get so distracted about buying the newest Iphone, or buying the newest fashions... and I just want to encourage you, my most favorite reader ever, to remember this quote the next time you get concerned with those kinds of things! Exploring different cultures, reading, and taking long thoughtful walks are things that I would encourage you to hold a high value on in your life! You only got one life so why not explore this planet as much as you can! There's a saying that my generation loves to say, and yes I'm about to throw that on to you! Y.O.L.O!!! You Only Live Once! So don't be afraid to try new things, and be away from your comfort zone! You'll be surprised at how even something as little as going to the next town over, can dramatically change the way you think! Have fun! Peace!
