 home orders have us thinking more about solitude. How have you turned to T
 horeau in your contemplation on this topic?\n 	April 16\, 10-11 AM and 4-5
  PM (EST)—FRIENDSHIP: How has this global crisis made you think about fr
 iendship in general or specific friendships? What insight does Thoreau off
 er us in this regard?\n 	April 23\, 10-11 AM and 4-5 PM (EST)—SOCIETY: W
 hat do these times suggest about us as a society and how can Thoreau's wor
 ds help us reflect on where we are currently as a society?\n 	April 30\, 1
 0-11 AM and 4-5 PM (EST)—SPRING: “Shall a man not have his spring a
 s well as the plants?”(Journal\, June 1850) How have you been able to 
 experience and observe the transformations of spring this year? Has soci

 l changes? What metaphorical lessons\, many noted by Thoreau\, does sprin
 g have to offer us?\n 	May 7\, 10-11 AM and 4-5 PM (EST)—LIVING WITHOUT
  REGRETS: May 6 marks the anniversary of Thoreau’s passing. On his death
  bed\, Thoreau stated that he had no regrets about his life. What would 
 it take to come to the end of one’s life and have no regrets? In what w
 ays did Thoreau’s life and outlook put him in that position? Are you ins
 pired in this way by Thoreau’s life?\n\n\n\n
