EMERSON'S CHILD
1. I think Emerson would view the 2016 presidential election as embarrassing. However, I think Emerson would suggest we try to unite and deal with what we've got. We have to try and make this country better and the only way we can do that is to be postive and move foward.
.
2. He would probably suggest we read more books and learn new information each day. Well I think he'd say my career and school goals are pretty much everyone's goals but they're good. He'd advise me to volunteer at various places.
3. Emerson means be yourself by doing what makes you happy instead of trying to please everyone by living up to society's expectations. Be yourself and don't pay attention to what people Mau say or think about you cause you're happy with who you are. We can try to incorporate Emerson's ideas by reevaluating ourselves.
4. I would explain Emerson's ideas to a ten year old by telling him or her to be themselves, it's okay to be a different.

Emerson presentation notes
"The only way to have a friend is to be a friend." Being honest is what gets you friends.
"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself " Only you can make yourself happy.
Let opinions be heard whether they are good or bad.
Don't give up in life, work hard and you can accomplish anything.
You got to do what you have to for yourself, go out there and do you.
"To be great is to be misunderstood." Don't listen to what people say about you .
You can't sit around and wait for happiness, you go to get it for yourself.
"Society is a wave that moves onward but the water of which it is composed does not ." Society is always changing but we don't change who we are.
Never worry about backing up your own ideas and beliefs.
Don't conform to society's expectations.

EMERSON FOR THE YOUNG BUCK
In Emerson's essay he speaks about how all of us are unique and can accomplish great things if we believe and trust ourselves. He says it's okay to be different from the people around you and to speak your mind. Don't let anyone hold you back from being you because you are amazing.
