I slightly disagree with Thoreau.

Explanation: I said slightly disagree because his points and opinion are quiet accurate, BUT HIS PERCEPTION ABOUT LIFE ARE WRONG.

His points and opinion are right due to the facts that, we are often weigh down in pursuit of things that does not have value when compared to our lives. Everyone wants to add more to what he has, that is why we see our self's struggling daily from one point to another. Thoreau left his house in the city and moved to a cabin on Walden pond, which everyone once in a time wants to live a wild life with nature, maybe during holidays or weekends.

Why his opinion is unacceptable is because he see human as same with other nature and should live same life like every other nature. This is why I once said his perception about life is very wrong. Humans are unique and highly placed than every other nature. And OUR UNIQUENESS IS THE QUEST TO KNOW MORE, GET MORE, AND CREAT MORE. If we as humans loss any of this, then we have lost our uniqueness. If a man should make 10USD daily, he will want to work more harder to increase it to 15USD, because man is made to increase and multiply.

For Thoreau to say that people are concerned by insignificant things and not those that are truly important. Means he is commiting a "fallacy of hasty generalization" ( it means concluding a statement with just little or no evidence).

What do he call insignificant things. An item that is insignificant to him may be very significant to another fellow. Example : making enough money to buy a private jet may be insignificant to him, but it is significant to many that value time and appointment.

IN CONCLUSION THOREAU OPINION ABOUT LIVE IS WRONG, THOUGH HE HAS PROVEN SOME GOOD POINTS TO BACKUP HIS OPINION.
