Field Trip: Brooklyn Botanic Garden!

In the woods, we return to reason and faith. There I feel that nothing can befall me in life, -- no disgrace, no calamity (leaving me my eyes), which nature cannot repair. Standing on the bare ground, -- my head bathed by the blithe air and uplifted into infinite space, -- all mean egotism vanishes. I become a transparent eyeball; I am nothing; I see all; the currents of the Universal Being circulate through me; I am part and parcel of God. The name of the nearest friend sounds then foreign and accidental: to be brothers, to be acquaintences, master or servant, is then a trifle and a disturbance. I am the lover of uncontained and immortal beauty. In the wilderness, I find something more dear and connate than in streets or villages. In the tranquil landscape, and especially in the distant line of the horizon, man beholds somewhat as beautiful as his own nature.
-- Emerson,  Nature 
PREFACE: Life and style are interchangeable; your personal style is influenced by and is a reflection of the life you lead. My preference for rugged goods and timeless design is very much connected to the fact that I'm an active person who's happiest doing things outdoors. Being mindful about what you buy and how you dress goes hand in hand with being conscious and aware of the world around you.

The Brooklyn Botanic Garden is one of my favorite places in New York the world. This year I was fortunate enough to go when the cherry blossoms were just about in full effect. It felt great to get out and walk around and take in all the beauty.
