Group B Prompt

I developed a pretty strong opinion about McCandless and his journey, very early in the reading. Since then my opinion has not changed. I still feel that his decision was made solely for himself and not to prove a point to anyone around him. McCandless was pursuing his dream of being one with nature and escaping the regular cycle of life. He led a good fruitiful life and realized that the money and success was not what he wanted in life. My first opinion of McCandless was positive and through more reading i still do not have a negative opinion about what i chose to do.
