I went into the woods to learn how to live deliberately. “ Henry David Thoreau later wrote Civil Disobedience a book that influenced Ghandi and Martin Luther King. Time spent idly walking in nature is life affirming.
I think you meant ‘Walden’. Sure, his Civil Disobedience essay stood as an inspiration to Gandhi and MLK but that’s not what he wrote by going into the woods. He wrote CD in 1849 while he spend his reclusive time at Walden pond between 1845 - 1847.
For me, it was time spent in nature learning to live deliberately that gave Thoreau the insight to write Civil Disobedience. You are correct he did write Walden right after living near at the pond.
There is nothing here describing why we have become so. It's hyper, surveillance capitalism. Period. Stop. It demands we behave so & leaves no alternative.
Yes, I already read the books above but they still awaken me again. I'll try not to do anything rather than to achieve something to leave some space inside of me. Good article!

Double plus ungood, man
Taoist principle meets German rigorous thinking. Awesome Sauce...
“moments of pure leisure and rest without guilt” is such a craving, to dive deeply and escape the superficial whirl of Flatland…
