Nature vs. Self-Reliance

Consider the excerpts from Emerson's Nature and Self-Reliance read and discussed in class this week. Which of the two essays do you think is more relevant to your own life?

Choose one of the two essays and write about its relevancy to your life. Think about the broad ideas contained in the essay and the implications it has to you. You do not need to discuss specific quotations or agree with everything Emerson says about nature or being yourself, just write about how you connect with the general ideas in one of the essays.

Write at least two paragraphs. You can include a photo to enhance your writing if you like.
