Surround Yourself With Beauty
"You are wrong if you think joy emanates only or principally from human relationships. God has placed it all around us. It is in everything and anything we might experience. We just have to have the courage to turn against our habitual lifestyle and engage in unconventional living. My main point is that you do not need me or anyone else around to bring this new kind of light in your life (Krakauer 57).
Topic: Traveling and human relationships
Chris McCandless grew up in a wealthy family that had a lot of negativity. Chris saw that his parents were being affected by their marriage and their happiness and did not want to be a part of the family anymore. This led Chris to leave his family and to travel and never look back to his past. He wanted to be closer to god and with nature and live free. He does not want to feel the need for other peoples' joy, he wanted to explore and be grater person by living the choice he chose. Chris got so close to as many people as he could but he never stayed for a long amount of time, he wanted to keep going, didn't want to stop. He never knew where he was going but he ended up in many places and love to see new things. He has found happiness and a better lifestyle by traveling and exploring how to live alone, it is very hard to do but I guess its worth the risks to him. He feels like everyone should know how to live the way he did and wrote journals on what he was doing in a 100 days surviving in the wilderness.
