1. Chris has commitment to things that he loves (a. k. a. his car).
2. He isn’t a planner.
3. He’s not too proud to ask for help.
4. He doesn’t believe in unnecessary giving or receiving (as in gifts).
5. He isn’t awkward around people, and he’s at least somewhat social.
6. He doesn’t allow himself to lose touch with friends.
7. He’s grateful for the help he receives.
8. He’s alright with keeping his parents confused. He doesn’t really care about contacting them.
9. He believes in charity.
10. He doesn’t seem romantic so far. He doesn't seem to care about romantic relationships.
11. He’s small and looks younger than he is.
12. He has common sense.
13. He has survival skills.
14. When he sets an important goal, he makes sure to achieve it.
15. He doesn't want to go through life with his questions unanswered.
16. He doesn't want to die yet.

Chris may be one to keep in touch with old friends; however, he mainly and typically keeps to himself. His parents seem very mainstream. They think inside the box and live in suburbia. Chris probably loves them, yet nevertheless, he seems like he wants to detach himself from them. At this point, maybe Chris just wanted to escape from ordinary life for some amount of time. Maybe he was planning to never come back. He was very unclear with his message, but I think he was vague on purpose. Chris wants more than his parents can give him, and he knows that they'll try to stop him from going away, so I think he was so vague so that he had time to get away from them quickly.
Some might consider Chris insane for burning his wallet and giving away all of his savings, but I think that he was very profound to make this loud and risky statement. His actions were impulsive and spur of the moment, and I admire his carefree personality. He may not care about having lots of money stored up for himself, but he makes sure that those around hin are happy. I respect his decisions, and I think the motivations for doing so were to make a statement and to not live an unbearably normal, shallow life. Chris is in search for depth, and his actions are giving him that depth.

Your blog is very well-written. I enjoyed your insight on Christopher's possible reason for beginning a brand new life, although I don't quite believe him to be so profound.
