Just Run

Wherever we run, we'll never get far from what we leave behind.
We can run, run, run, but we can't hide. - Grateful Dead

This quote I've heard only a few times, but every time I do it seems to stick. We all try to run from things we don't want to deal with. When something bad happens like fights, death, etc. we want to run. We want to leave it all behind and maybe it will get better. Maybe when we get back it will all be better. Or maybe when i come back I'll find out none of this actually never happened, it was just a dream. It doesn't work though, we always come back to the same situation and always feel the same way. We are still sad and depressed, simply helpless. In the end, we know that running didn't help, we should ahve just stayed where we were and dealt with it. But that's just not how human's work, we just want to run. I mean who wants to deal with a fight that cahnges your life forever, or a death of somebody close to you? Why did God want to do this to me? This is the question we can't answer, which is why we run, and are always found. We thought we were hidden from it all, but God brings us back to the situation and we become unhidden, found. Left to deal with the trials of life, which is why we are here in the first place. To deal with the happiness and the pain, but in the end still go to a better place.
