Okay I am sorry but one of the best ways that I have found to describe myself is through the lyrics of a song, and I know that that isn't unusal or anything but most of the lyrics that I choose aren't ones from songs that you hear on the radio. See in high school, I found that the people that I fit in the best with were the choir boys and the theatre kids. So naturally by association, I was introduced to the world of Broadway music. And yes for the most part I don't mind it at all, but whenever I am asked what my favorite kind of music is, my answer is always whatever is on the radio. But anywho thats not the point. Situations tend to get tricky when peoples emotions get in the way, and then people are forced to make life altering decisions. Scary decisions. Adult decisions. Ones that people just recently introduced into adulthood should not have to make. There is a decision in my life that I am debating whether or not to make. But I feel in a way that by making this decision and choosing the path that I am thinking of choosing, not only is it terrifying, but I fear that I am doing it because I want to run away, and I fear that running away isn't the right thing to do. There is a song from the Musical, Into the Woods, by Stephen Sondhiem, in this musical a baker and his wife go into the woods in an attempt to be able to have a child and come in contact with several fairy tale characters. Its not a very good description of the plot, but hey give me a break. Anywho. There is a song called No More. In a way its about running away. here are some lyrics, and I was wondering if you all could give me some feedback on what you think about running away, is it right? Is it wrong? Should it be done? Or should one seek a different path...

"Running away- go to it.
Where did you have in mind?
Have to take care:
Unless there's a "where,"
You'll only be wandering blind.
Just more questions.
Different kind.

Where are we to go?
Where are we ever to go?

Running away- we'll do it.
Why sit around, resugned?
Trouble is, son,
The farther you run,
The more you feel undefined
For what you've left undone
And, more, what you've left behind"

Thanks all,

Mattie



There's a kind of a sort...cost
There's a couple of things get...lost
There are bridges you cross you didn't know you'd cross until you've crossed

Running away is an evasion...... while running to something is an acceptance.......

the decision aeems to have been already made....


Do it...... but never burn your bridges behind you....

And with that, always remember that home will always be exactly where you left it.....



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Im not very experienced and Ive never run away but I gave this some thought. If your running away from a bad situation in the hopes of making things better then you should do it, but so it because you want to. If your running awau from a minor problem then where ever you go the problem will still be there. Sometimes it is better to face something and defeat it than to rin away from it.
