This to me felt like a very poignant story. It kind of moved from place to place and from time to time in his life kind of like his internal dialogue was writing in his diary. It bothered me that he was cataloging his life from event to event and from accomplishment accomplishment but not with any great victories or celebrations.
I hope never to go through chunks of my life without remembering things in a positive way. If he did remember things in a positive way, it didn't seem like it. Whitman did not seem to love his job at any point in his life. After 25 years or so of marriage, he didn't seem to enjoy life being married nor love his wife in the way that you would hope to love or be loved.
He did seem to enjoy the simple life simple walks appreciate peaceful times on solo exploration missions in new places are towns that he hadn't been in. Or if he had been there, he would see it in a different perspective at night, in the rain, in the snow less crowded or completely congested. I don't know, that's kind of nice… But I want more!
