What a beautiful day that was, on the day I married Mr. Right. I just wanted to take a moment to be grateful for all I have been blessed with.
Have a great weekend!
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Born: 25 May 1803
- Birthplace: Boston, Massachusetts
- Died: 27 April 1882
- Best Known As: A founder of Transcendentalism
Ralph Waldo Emerson’s father was the seventh in an unbroken line of ministers dating back to Puritan days, and after attending Harvard Emerson himself became a Unitarian minister. After the death of his young wife and two elder brothers, Emerson began to doubt his faith and in 1832 resigned his ministry. Eventually he settled in Concord, Massachusetts, where he lived most of the rest of his life thinking, writing and speaking. Emerson remains important in American history as a founder of the school of thought known as Transcendentalism. Its chief features were a reliance on intuition over cold scientific reason, a belief that the natural world held spiritual truths, and an optimistic view of the human spirit. Emerson was known as a stirring speaker, eventually earning the sobriquet “the Sage of Concord.”

Congratulations on your anniversary! Beautiful site for a wedding.
Thanks, Vickie! It really was beautiful. The water was much bluer than the little disposable cameras show.
