McCandless was a unique human being, always searching for something new, the thrill of being in his own world, while what happened to him was unfortunate in Alaska, his life shows gives us a perspective on what its like to be Self-Reliant. Very few times in his life did he need help. He relied on the moment and trusting himself. McCandless perfectly represents the definition of being Self-Reliant.

The song "Weightless" by Washed Out is about forgetting the past and bettering yourself, focusing on yourself and only yourself, this reminds me of Emerson's essay because they both relate to the struggle of man and the power to overcome it. Much like the text in this essay the song has some deep lyrics that really show the flesh of the struggle. A lyric from this song that contributes to the essay is, "Rise up. Forget about yourself forever. Float up. Forget about the pain. Leave it all and start again." while these lyrics provide emotion, it ties back to the whole idea of self-reliance and it shows that you can start over and do it again. I compare these lyrics to the following quote in the essay, "We but half express ourselves, and are ashamed of that divine idea which each of us represents." these two are alike because they both show an emotional connection.

A fictional character that embodies the idea of self-reliance would be Lisa from the simpsons, the image given to Lisa in the show "The Simpsons" is a smart young girl who often does not have resources around to help her. She relies on herself to get things done and be successful. In a family which seemingly does not care Lisa manages to overcome adversity and shine as a bright image in a gloomy family. A quote from the excerpt that describes Lisa would be, "It needs a divine man to exhibit any thing divine." Lisa is divine by her constand trust in herself and smartness to get things done.
