What a waste.  We were not allowed to be born just to die.  This young talent was selfish  to the point of destruction as he found.  Very sad.  Perhaps, he came from too much and don't hand me the divorce problems of his parents.  When life kicks you in the ass, you get up, dust your jeans off, and move on to try and make others a better life.  That, my friend, Mr. McCandless is what life is all about.  You were selfish.  Nevertheless, you followed what you believed to be a true path.  May God have still love you.
