more starry, more immortal

If the day and night are such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more starry, more immortal- that is your success. All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily to bless yourself.
said Henry David Thoreau in Walden.

the seasons are about to change...I can already see the day a bit shorter from mid-July...I see the vegetables in the garden coming into full ripeness.
.........and autumn.......
Stay in your shorts and sandals as long as you can....Rage Rage Rage against the shorter days....but fall will come....and it could look like this:

Walden -- The one who came from farthest to my lodge, through deepest snows and most dismal tempests, was a poet. A farmer, a hunter, a soldier, a reporter, even a philosopher, may be daunted; but nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love.

Walden -- I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance than I should have been by any epaulet I could have worn.

Walden -- 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.
