EMERSON FOR THE YOUNG BUCK

What I learned from Self-Reliance is multiple things, such as that we have leaders in the world that control us and tell us our rights. I learned that you shouldn't be afraid to be yourself and not just half of yourself but your full self and don't mind what others think. I learned that Emerson believes that infants or morons are geniuses. I learned that the world is going to give you a hard time but to fight through it and keep going on. Another thing and the part that got me the most is when Emerson believed that the youth has a voice and a right in the world. Also about the evil and devil stuff that Emerson was relating to either heaven or hell or the good and bad in people and society. The last thing is that don't look for help outside yourself and mind and how many of his things are talking about how society is today even though Self-Reliance was written many years ago.
