I wrote the little article the other night, because I was so frustrated with all of the information that was given to us about Ralph Waldo Emerson in all of those pages we were required to read about him before we could really enjoy his reading! Once I got through that stuff, I found that I really liked (or at least liked) his writing. I loved how he described beauty, and linked it to nature. I have found many of those feelings as I drive to school each morning coming from Herriman to West Valley City. The beauty of the mountains and the first light coming over them in the morning, or the clouds and fog lighting up during the first dawn light as you come over a hill and see Antalope Island.
Anyway, I just wanted to apologize for giving poor Ralph such a hard time in my last blog.

It also took me a while to appreciate him. He really wrote with an artist's eye, and I think it helped me to pay more attention to the world around me.
