Friends..(prompted by Thoreau quote)












Friends~

unconditional

love appears 

as friends~

the assumption of

separation 

may seem as 

clouds

in the midst of

sunny talk~

unconditional love

appearing as

Friends~~ 


The Thoreau Society

Richard Smith

"I love my friends very much, but I find that it is of no use to go to see them. I hate them commonly when I am near them. They belie themselves and deny me continually."

-From Thoreau's Journal; November 16, 1850

IMAGES: Three of Thoreau's closest friends, Bronson Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Ellery Channing.
