  • Essay / I Made My Own Walden Pond - 507

    I Made My Own Walden PondThoreau believed in "living deep and sucking out all the marrow of life", and so he lived on the Walden Pond for two years to see how he could simplify living to the fullest. I created my own “Walden,” a place where I could retreat to escape the materialism of my society. The place that I created to go where there is no materialism and where I can be myself and be who I want to be is a place that is far away in the woods. This place is a place where anything is possible. All around you you see only flowers and animals, beautiful green grass and my own little cottage to spend my days. There, I don't need to worry about paying my bills or finding a job. All I have to do is sit back and relax. I like to fish for food, but I only catch what I can eat, because I don't want my game to become scarce. Sometimes I hunt for my dinner and look for food on the ground like pine cones or berry bushes. In the forest, no one has to worry about materialism, you just have to be yourself. I chose this place because I love the forest and I love animals. I don't want to make a fuss about doing something I don't want to do. I can enjoy life in nature by simply listening to nature and the things around me. I bathe in a river that flows fresh water every day. I'm glad I have pets, because if I didn't I would be alone all the time and have no one to share my secrets with. My house isn't big, but it meets my needs, and I don't have any over there. It doesn't take much. All I have is a chair to read in, a toilet under the tree outside, and a bed. I only have what I need to live. I light a fire every evening to warm myself and cook my food. My house is just a cabin that can only accommodate me and my dog ​​jumps exactly the way I want him to. Flowers that make it pretty and interesting surround my cabin. It's something comfortable and something I can just go in and think and be alone without ever having to worry about anyone or anything other than my pets and me- even..
