Emerson quote

"All I have seen teachs me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen."

This is the truest statement I've heard in a while. Living in Telluride helps expecially. With the unimaginable beauty we have here, I do imagine other places the same way. Since beauty is never always in the same place, whenever I go anywhere else, I know that it will be the same beauty, just in a different setting. If one place is beautiful, then the others are just. The first time I went to Hawaii, even before I landed, I saw the beauty of the ocean, knowing Hawaii was just as nice. One of the trustest statements ive heard, that everyone knows, but no one can express.

  1. Mason,

    I, too, love this quotation--and while I am intrigued by where this response took you, I was a little disappointed (as a reader) that you didn't push yourself to explore Emerson's possible meaning further (the whole 'evidence of the unseen' thing). Still, a good first post. I'm looking forward to even more length and substance in future posts!
