In Walking, Henry David Thoreau talks about the importance of
nature to mankind, and how people cannot survive without nature,
physically, mentally, and spiritually, yet we seem to be spending
more and more time entrenched by society. For Thoreau walking is a
self-reflective spiritual act that occurs only when you are away
from society, that allows you to learn about who you are, and find
other aspects of yourself that have been chipped away by society.
This new edition of Thoreau's classic work includes annotations and
a biographical essay.
This 100 page, lined 6x9 journal/diary is inspired by Tyra Hodge's
"A Wounded Daughter's Diary" book. You will feel inspired to write
through your struggles and success with this beautiful journal.
