The Sublime
I'm reading The Abolition of Man with The Literary Life podcast. A member of that group shared this video about Caspar David Friedrich. I'm reading Mere Christianity with my Challenge 4 class and I'm leisurely going through The Complete Poems of Keats in my free time. All of these sources mention the sublime. So it's a concept I'm thinking of often. I've also made it a goal to take 100 walks this year. Sitting by this stream today after one of my walks, listening to it sing, seeing the light dance on the surface, feeling the spray of tiny water droplets on my skin... ahh! It was sublime. I have decided to take as many of those 100 walks outside as possible to give myself more opportunity for experiencing sublimity.
