Is it really?

"Happiness only real when shared" (Krakauer 189).

Fool or Inspiration?

The question has always been how can happiness be created and what makes a person happy. In this case Chris was alone for longer than anyone could imagine. He knows what it feels like to try to be happy and share it with people and try to be happy and physically cannot share it with anyone.
So because of this Chris must know what real happiness feels like. He came from a neglected family and when happiness comes he truly knows the feeling. The question throughout the book has been if Chris was an inspiration or was he just a fool to drop everything and leave society as a whole. Through his experiences we can all learn that yes alone time is much needed but that you will never be truly happiness unless you share that happiness with someone else. For this reason and this reason only Chris is a huge inspiration.
