Henry David Thoreau

In honor of the birthday of Henry David Thoreau, I thought I would share some of my favorite quotes: Enjoy!



Henry David ThoreauJuly 12, 1817-May 6th, 1854



1 ) I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

2 ) Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler.

 3) If you would convince a man that he does wrong, do right. But do not care to convince him. Men will believe what they see. Let them see.

4) Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify

5) Public opinion is a weak tyrant compared with our own private opinion. What a man thinks of himself, that is which determines, or rather indicates, his fate.

Merriweather’s Soaps:

I have known about Merriweather’s since I started my own soap business about 5-6 years ago. I was very taken with their website and beautiful pictures of their stores but was never acquainted with their products.

Well as a gift just recently I received one of Merriweather’s soaps. All I can say is; Wow!  I am now a fan for life. This is an all natural cold process soap that is heavenly. I received the Mediterranean Breeze soap and used it the very next day I received it. It smelled so good I did not want to put it down!

Merriweathers uses only high quality ingredients and all natural essential oils in their soaps, no artificial fragrance oils are used. That fact along with the olive oil and nut oils they use make it truly moisturizing and beneficial for all skin types.

Here is a link to their website. They have two stores locally and from what I see they sell product in a few stores across the county as well.

They are worth a visit from anywhere.
