Summary

This quote by Henry David Thoreau emphasizes the value of slowing down and truly experiencing the present moment. Thoreau suggests that sauntering, which refers to a leisurely and carefree stroll, is more than just a physical act. It is an art form that requires an appreciation of the world around us and a deliberate effort to be fully present. Sauntering allows us to immerse ourselves in our surroundings, observe the small details, and take pleasure in seemingly ordinary moments. It encourages us to cultivate a greater sense of mindfulness and find beauty in the simplicity of life.

Well... I had braces and I had to wear headgear! I loved my braces, actually. For me, they were like a piece of jewelry! Instead of the silver or pewter I had gold braces. It was so much fun, I loved them. I got to change the colors and stuff and I had the rubber bands.
