    On April 28, 1992, Chris McCandless stepped foot into the woods, a journey that would last four months, coming to an end much earlier than he would’ve hoped.

    Sometimes, in sports or in life in general, there are favorites and underdogs. There is a general consensus that the favorite team or player will win but sometimes it`s the underdog that wins and receives all the honor related with that win. This is very similar to what I read about Seabiscuit and what I watched in the video of Jason McElwain. Some people have the ability to transcend their underdog status (ie. Red from Seabiscuit and Jason) and create something very special.…

As you read those examples you probably either said whoops I've done that but its not that bad or you looked at those and thought they were so wrong.

All humans on this earth believe it is their undeniable right to be happy, and it is this fact that has caused all things great and terrible. Where would the human race go to be happy.…
