Sometimes I just have to get out walk in the woods. It was the first weekend of November that I decided to stop at a forest preserve and just take a walk. Henry David Thoreau says in his book Walden, "Simplify, simplify, simplify!" I try to carry this simple concept with me, although, even though he warns of this, I just seem to complicate and fill my life and time. So, a walk in the woods is good for me to reconnect to Earth and myself. Thoreau also writes in Walden, "
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 lear
n what it had to teach." So, there I was in the forest, listening for what it had to teach. These images are what I found.
