Joy of Life
Chris means that he believes that there are probabl a surplus of people who are tired of following the rules of "perfect" life. Get up every morning, get ready for work or school, do the same thing everyday with only two days off from each week (depending on where you live). It's like reading the same five pages of a book everyday, reading two new pages, then reading it all over again. Yes, he was right. An abundance of people want to get out into the world, do something different for once in their lives for a ch
ange. They just don't have the guts to do it because it's "abnormal" or "dangerous". The feeling of being safe, knowing what or when their next meal will be, coming to the same house everyday & having a good social status may make them feel as if their on top of the world. Yet, they still have some weight on their shoulders.
The ways that Chris embraced then exemplified those beliefs were that he dropped everything and left on an adventure. With no money, no car, barely any food or clothes. Everyday something completely different happened to him, he simply just went with the flow, took the extra weight off his shoulders and left. He stopped caring about society wanted from him and thought of him.
My life has been conditioned to a life os security, conformity and conservatism by me being held from doing a lot of the things that's considered "unethical". I would say that I kind of care a lot about what people think of me. Most of the time I'm always trying to adjust my personality to however I think the person I'm hanging out with until I feel comfortable enough around the person. I always want to be accepted. Most of the time I can't do the things that I think are fun because myy dad keepss mec on a short leash. If. Chris McCandlesmet me, he would probably question why I always care. What people thhink about m. He might encourage me to do what makes ME happy. Not my father, not my sister, me. He's going to tell me to live my life for me.
