EL HOMBRE NO ES EL JUEZ ÚLTIMO DEL TRABAJO MÁS HUMILDE (THOREAU 4-03-1852)

I have thoughts, as I walk, on some subject that is running in my head, but all their pertinence seems gone before I can get home to set them down. 

The most valuable thoughts which I entertain are anything but what I thought. Nature abhors a vacuum, and if I can only walk with sufficient carelessness I am sure to be filled. 

Measure your health by your sympathy with morning and spring. If there is no response in you to the awakening of nature, if the prospect of an early morning walk does not banish sleep, if the warble of the first bluebird does not thrill you, know that the morning and spring of your life are past. Thus you may feel your pulse. 

As we grow older, is it not ominous that we have more to write about evening, less about morning? We must associate more with the early hours. 

Our work should be fitted to and lead on the time, as bud flower and fruit lead the circle of the seasons
