It is through our own human addiction that we take part in activities that make us feel something different than we're used to. By positioning ourselves within the comfort of discomfort and the repetition of change, whether it's designed or coincidence, we find the experiences that remind us of the reasons why we're here. This is an exploration into the mental phenomena of the human experience. Please explore the ARCHIVES at the bottom of this page. kclickenger@c-jr.com

The Wild

If you have not yet read Into the Wild, it's about time that you do. This book came into my life about 7 years ago and impacted it immensely and immediately. I've personally purchased at least half a dozen copies of the book, but have never failed to give it to someone who I thought should read it.
You'd better hurry up though, because after you've read it, you should see the film, by Sean Penn, which is definitely worthy of a trip to the big screen.

It's a compelling story, and one which is surrounded with plenty of controversy and criticism. Was it a noble journey of self discovery or a foolish misconception of what freedom is? There's no secret that this is a tragic tale, and even a bit more tragic than the movie depicts. Nevertheless, it'll change the way you think about your life, your goals, the world around you, and the people you love.

That was a good book. Not sure why or how I ended up reading it since I don't really read that often. Is the movie coming out now or is it an old film?

Dude, fantastic movie, beautifully presented. Came home and read the book again. Planned on letting you know it's out there, but alas you already know.
