Sometimes It's Easier to Escape Society

I'll start by posting this quote from the movie Into the Wild.

So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
- Christopher McCandless

For those of you not familiar with the this quote or the movie here is a summary. Christopher McCandless, who is extremely intelligent, hates society and it's judgmental characteristics. A lot of this stems from his childhood (which you learn about throughout the movie). After he graduates from a prestigious college he decides to abandon society and travel through the wild. This movie is deeply inspirational and breathtaking. Or at least that is what I got out of it.

Being an impatient person makes it difficult to accept that all the questions that I have about life will not be answered, EVER. This eventually leads to over analyzing every situation that I am put into and also every persons actions around me. Judgment is not only frustrating and straining to ones mind, it is also natural. Every person judges other people. This probably has something to do with also every person being naturally selfish.

So, as I over analyze and question my path through life and the meaning behind my decisions (what's moral and immoral...etc), and my future, I very much just want to escape society and leave all the corruption and bullshit behind. Sometimes I want to leave everything behind and see the pure things in this world instead of hearing the deceiving and fake conversations of people around me and seeing the conniving actions of those in this world

I'm probably a hypocrite for writing this since I too say things that may not be absolutely true and also want to be accepted by others. But being selfish and judgmental is natural and can in some aspects lead a person to be more of a "down to earth" person, but there is a line that should be drawn because the more you judge others and are selfish, the more you turn into a person you never wanted to become. We should all just step back and take a look at the actions we take, the comments we make, the judgmental attitudes we have and try to change the way we look at the world and what it offers. There is so much more to life than going to see a concert, buying a pair of shoes, or going out to parties. Maybe this is why seeing the wild and leaving society is so great. It allows you to see the pureness and breathtaking world that most of us never even start to consider. A world that is inspirational and far from the bullshit all people have to deal with in life.
