It isnt meant to be read as a novel, but to be picked up casually. Dipped into. My friend Ed brought out his copy of Walt Whitmans "Leaves of Grass " last weekend, and, as he read, I realized how little I had understood those marvelous words when I first read them. It is one of the most humble books I have ever read, yet, when first published... (and still is to the unknowing)... it appears to be one huge ego trip. Nothing, however, could be farther from the truth, even though the very first words are those memorable, "I Celebrate Myself." For, "Ones Self, is the compass-needl- e necessary to find the secret Walt hid in the haystack of his poetry. For when he carols out "of Ones Self, I sing, a simple separate person" it is well to remember that it was not just his self he sang about, but "all" selves. Separate enough, as we well know, but still... thinking, feeling, being and loving as one. Like all seemingly decent people, we feel that much candor about our inner emotions might be judged either vanity or bad taste. Tacky is the word oft used today, or even worse, it might be called boring. too But the first thing one learns from "The Leaves" is that candor about ones private emotions may not be egotism at all, but deep humility. Openness about ones inner struggles do not divide one from another, but brings about the comforting assurance that all men are born, suffer, enjoy, love and die in much the same manner. I belatedly learned that truth. Whitman knew it a ago and revealed his feelings in his simple, yet way. century-and-a-ha- lf mind-blowin- g Get out your copy of "The Leaves" and prowl Oh, what a he had as he penned: "I know I am august, and I do not trouble my spirit to vindicate itself or be understood. I exist as I am, that is enough, and if no other in the world be aware... I sit content. And yet, if each and all be aware... I shall still sit and be content." Immense! He is a member of Explorer Post 337 of the Western Hills 1st LDS ward, with Scott Heiner as his Explorer advisor. Kevin Turner, son of Sandra and John Turner, of Kearns has attained the rank of Eagle Scout. Kevin has earned 21 merit badges and for his service project he cleaned up weeds and debris, and graveled the to the subdivision he lives in. right-of-wa- y He sang the song of Me and sang it as though he looked out from the eyes of man, woman, worker, slave, master, (yes, his life spanned the Civil War) or... a leaf of grass. He sang of the beauty of a mans or womans body... he sang of the everyday ecstasy of sex. He sang of birth and death and knew them both to be but different aspects of the same every-flowin- g life. Cynthia Ann Holder Weds Chris . Singleton Whitman... couldnt you guess?... was not thought well of in his time. Those same subjects, even today are looked upon... by some blinded people... with averted eyes and ears. Those who knew Whitman closely, liked him, oh yes, but they also hoped hed go away and mingle with someone else. But that s always the way are treated. They, in themselves, have no sense of proportion. They cannot adhere to a schedule or stay on subjects most average people consider proper. So, with their free, outspoken manner, they are uncomfortable to be around. fore-runne- No one is a genius to those who know him humanly, except before he arrives or after he has gone his way. And that was the with way Whitman. But his genius lives on, and if you havent poked through your copy of "The Leaves" lately, do so. Whitman will tell you more about yourself than you ever knew... or could guess. Take off your blinders, forget your guilts, forget your fear and forget your pride of uniqueness.
