Estos días, las páginas de 'Concord 1845', de Diego Cobo, publicado por #PuntdeVistaEditores, me han vuelto a llevar a esta pequeña ciudad estadounidense, única en el mundo, donde el espíritu de los #Emerson, #Thoreau o #Alcott sigue presente.

“Nature will bear the closest inspection; she invites us to lay our eye level with the smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain. She has no interstices; every part is full of life.”
— Henry David Thoreau, “Natural History of Massachusetts” in Excursions, p. 7

do we begin to find ourselves."

Picture of a small bird in a birdhouse made from an old streetlamp, affixed to a tree. I love to repurpose items and give them a whole new life... Quote says "birds don't sing in caves" - Thoreau
I like to repurpose old items and give them a new life...
Took this old streetlamp and made it an outside bird feeder.
Have many "weird" ones in the back on trees...
"Birds don't sing in caves" - Thoreau

He speaks a lot of truth about wildness and nature. He’s also really conceited. Oh for the leisure and physical health to walk in nature four hours a day! /end

Book 58 of 2026 - Walking by Henry David Thoreau. Dude is confused — “the white man is the best, westward expansion is progress, but how do those guys with jobs not kill themselves? Wildness is the way” — never seeing the inherent contradiction. #BookSky #Nature #Thoreau #Wildness 1/2
“We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aids, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn, which does not forsake us in our soundest sleep.”
— Henry David Thoreau, *Walden*

Thoughts from the Thoreau documentary, and longing for community.... senseofmisplaced.blogspot.com/2026/04/wher... #Thoreau #blogpost #writingcommunity #essay
Here is how alone I am. There is no soul in my life for me to discuss the latest #kenburns documentary on #Thoreau. Not one person in my life.
Are you getting into the new #Thoreau documentary running on PBS today and tomorrow? Read more from behind the scenes: concordbridge.org/index.php/20...
Watching the new #Thoreau series. Such relaxing imagery and writing. Beautiful. #nature #PBS #transcendentalism #humanism
"New PBS Documentary: Henry David Thoreau: Notre Dame Press Reading List." Background image: Black-and-white image of Thoreau's head and shoulders; collage including flowers, faded text, and protesters with raised fists and the words "We will not be silent."
Tuning into tonight’s #PBS special, “HENRY DAVID THOREAU”? Don’t miss the Notre Dame Press #HenryDavidThoreau reading list! #Documentary #Thoreau

There's a moment in the Thoreau doc where the directors put in the sound of an iphone makes when it gets a message and my body shuddered.
Put your phone down and touch grass and/or watch the PBS Thoreau doc tonight (after you read my interview with the director, of course). #thoreau
Now comes good sailing: sheets filled, water curling from the bow, heeling to the wind, sun glinting on white foam, and no need to return to land. But maybe I shall miss the land: the shadowed forests and the endless plains, moose, bison, caribou, bear, wolf, and mountain lion, and the ghosts of cultures fading from ancestral grounds, nobility displaced by politics, Abenaki, Passamaquoddy, Wolastoqiyik, Mi’kmaq, and Penobscot — now just Indian. No, no, I’ll take to water, steer a course by sun and stars to where there is no you or I, but just the sea reflecting sky in rolling waves.
"Henry David Thoreau".
from "Last Words" - a sequence of poems each starting with the last words (sometimes apocryphal) of a well-known person. (Note in Comments.)
