Snowy White - Slabo Day

Hame@BiH
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary.
I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms...”
Henry David Thoreau (July 12, 1817 - May 6, 1862)
--
Otišao sam u šumu jer sam želio da živim promišljeno.
Da se suočim samo sa bitnim činjenicama života i vidim da li ne mogu da naučim ono što me mora naučiti, a ne da, kada sam došao da umrem, otkrijem da nisam živio. Nisam želio da živim ono što nije život, život je tako drag, niti sam želio da prakticiram odlazak, osim ako nije bilo neophodno.
Želio sam da živim duboko i da isisam svu srž života, da živim tako čvrsto da uništim sve što nije život.
Da kosim široki otkos, da satjeram život u ćošak i svedem se na najniže potrebe.
