He wrote little about his time in the woods, but what he did - TopicsExpress



          

He wrote little about his time in the woods, but what he did reveal was harrowing. Some years, he made it clear, he barely survived the winter. In one letter, he told me that to get through difficult times, he tried meditating. I didnt meditate every day, month, season in the woods. Just when death was near. Death in the form of too little food or too much cold for too long. Meditation worked, he concluded. I am alive and sane, at least I think Im sane. As always there was no formal closing. His letters simply ended, sometimes mid-thought.
