On Self-Reliance Pt 2

• “To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all man,-that is genius.”
• When the less mature get what they want 
• As young people we only see things as fun or boring
• Independence is seen as out of order
• Emerson sees us as individual thinkers
• “The times have changed” I wholeheartedly agree with Preston
• How back then being different wasn’t feared in schools
• Then how schools were more strict after 9/11
• Thoughts held in ourselves will soon be spoken by another in mind
