So Many Times But It Only Makes Things Worse.

A personal story in the experience: I Sometimes Wish I Could Just Run Away
i have wanted to run away many a time, but having watched my mum spent her entire life, running back and forward between cornwall and kent, i know it is not a solution, all she has done is put herself constantly in debt, and often made her and her family homeless.

it has also resulting in our family all being split up, drop hither and thither in one or another of her choosen relocation towns, villages, or citys.

and now she stuck between a rock and a hard place because we are all having kids and she cant be there for us all, so she tends to go a few years in kent, a few years in cornwall and just racks up even more bills.

the only upside is that all her children have learnt from her mistakes and all of us bar one now own out own homes.

and im sure my mum could have by now too if she had saved all the money she spent running, and not thrown it all away, in order that she would not have to face up to her problems.

and when i think of all i went threw and all the good friends i was forever losing, i know that i could never do the same to my son.

running sometimes seems tempting but as they say the grass is rarely greener on the other side, and once you start running its incredibly hard to stop
