For years, I have been drawn to the American Renaissance. Emerson, Thoreau and Whitman inspire me to enjoy rugged individualism within a society I question and support. I wonder how they might react to our current globalization. My overall thought is that we are all connected to each other in the past, present and future of our shared humanity. Whitman is wise; “For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.”
I hope to use my tiny space in this immense blogosphere to connect with people globally. The information age is an incredible time in our world's history. In our ever-increasing global connectedness, is individualism strengthened or weakened? Celebrated or scorned? Possible or impossible?
