What will your verse be?

Dead Poets Society is a great movie. It is also the only movie that has ever made me have a panic attack while watching it but that's a different story, haha. Robin Williams character, John Kealings, is a great example of transcendentalism. The majority of his teachings follow transcendentalism but he is also an example of it himself. He does not conform to normal teaching styles and is a very unique person. He inspires his students to "Seize the day" and tells them that each one of them has the opportunity to make a difference: to add there own verse to the book of life. He made life seem simple and saying that life is about beauty, romance, love, and passion.  The aspects of transcendentalism that John Kealings teaches are very inspiring. Live every moment to the fullest, don't conform to the beliefs of everyone else, write your own story, seize the day, don't be afraid to take a different path, and look at life through your own eyes!
