Always be yourself
and stay true to yourself. The important thing is the consistency about being ourselves.
As long as one is being genuine to one self, one can have one opinion today and
change it to another the next day. This is what Emerson means when he talks about
honor, to be your true self. By doing genuine things, having honor, helps us
live life day by day.
“We worship
to-day because it is not of today.” We worship someone today because of all of
his past actions. But, does Emerson tell us to judge by our past actions or by
our present actions? We shouldn’t take the result of the actions; we should
take the actions as being consistent with one self.
“Every true
man is a cause, a country, an age; requires in finite spaces and number and
time to fully accomplish his design.”
