In preparation for a group discussion, read about henry david thoreau’s passion for nature and the outdoors.

i wish to speak a word for nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil – to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of nature, rather than a member of society. i wish to make an extreme statement, if so i may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.
i have met with but one or two persons in the course of my life who understood the art of walking, that is, of taking walks – who had a genius, so to speak, for sauntering.
–“walking,”
henry david thoreau

in a group discussion, a participant says, “i hate walking. why walk when you can just get a ride? ” write three to four sentences in which you share your own viewpoint. be sure to provide evidence and refer to the passage you just read.
