After reading "The World Is Too Much With Us” by William Wordsworth there are a multitude of themes that strike me as relevant to our current society. Themes of modernization‚ isolationism and sadness open up a dialog to the human condition. The speaker takes a stance that demonstrates that the world has many beautiful qualities‚ but because we have become too distracted‚ too numb‚ we simply do not appreciate those qualities.
