Living a simple life is a main point Thoreau tries to drive across in his writing. He believes that we should live like nature, and not fret and worry about every little thing. “Let us spend one day as deliberately as Nature, and not be thrown off the track by every nutshell and mosquito’s wing that falls on the rails.” (Walden 95-96) Thoreau comes to the realization that he has not truly lived until he lived in the woods. He writes how if you follow your dreams and endeavors you will be successful and fulfilled. “I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”
