There are days when I look out the window, and as sad as it sounds, sit there and wonder about how nature feels and how it 'escapes' in a way from its surroundings. Yes, nature may not have self awareness in life but it still flourishes. The world itself is full of so many possibilities, so many opportunities and so many places to hide - runaway. Running away doesn't necessarily mean physically running but perhaps mentally running away - day dreaming, pretending to be in a different place, a different atmosphere, so in your own mind you are away from problems and threats if there are some.
I often think to myself what would happen if I was to runaway, never look back or regret any actions, maybe I would be free from all my insecurities and also gather that sense of freedom that no one controls me, not even the world and its dictatorship.
I sit there in class sometimes with a teacher constantly emitting their ways of what is right and what is wrong, but really do they know what's 'best'... When do we ever get our chance to say our opinions, instead this is called 'back chatting', these are times when I feel I want to runaway, runaway from that constant mind set from individuals over wrong and right. Surely, in ourselves, we know what is right and wrong for us. Why should we have to constantly follow these 'rules'?
I see people argue in various relationships and often the answer that speaks out to them is to runaway from their problems. Forget about them, put them to the back of their minds. The truth is these problems and arguments will always be in their minds, one day it will come back and remind them that a part of their life is unsolved, and that an important relationship has been dissolved on such ridiculous, unnecessary terms.
Running away may not be the right thing to do, problems have to be solved and reality has to exist, otherwise what seperates us from the fantasy, dreamy world of 'make believe'. We all have an imagination that stretches to a certain extent and we should have the power to have this, as this in itself is running away, why do it physically when you can be far more adventurous and safer in your own mind?
