Into the Wild.
Earlier this night I went to see Into The Wild; a movie brought to my attention because of its soundtrack, a wonderful cd that goes by the same title, made by Eddie Vedder. That cd gave me goosebumps listening to it the very first time. So I definitely had to see this movie. And I am glad I did, as it was the best movie I have seen in years.
Hearing Chris'/Alex' story opened my eyes. I felt like I grew out of my head, both spiritually and emotionally. It felt like the world around me faded away and like Emile and Jena were talking directly at me and if they were begging me to change my life now I still can.
I had never heard Chris' story before. In short, it's about a man who tries to seek his spiritual awakening by going 'into the wild' : he goes hiking to Alaska with barely any means to do so.
After 2h28m I was completely mesmerarized and my world stood upside down. I never said so many philosophical things before. It made me think about my own life as well.
Conclusion: I need my own journey to Alaska, I need my own spiritual awakening.
Christopher McCandless told me his story. His story is becoming mine.
