"Happiness only real when shared."
~Chris McCandless

I've always been good at sharing my happiness. For the majority of my life I've depended on others for happiness. Even though Chris learned that happiness is best when experienced with another person, I'm learning that there is happiness to be experienced alone. Chris's story has driven that point home to me: I don't need to learn to be eternally happy in complete solitude for the rest of my life, but solitude has happiness to offer that I am just now discovering.
