Are there times where you just want to run away and be free?
I want to run away i dire for it, but im far too scared im scared because i have too many commitments and if i do run away, if i ever return thing would be incredible worse for me, I know if i did run away I'd be found. I'm stuck in this life I've created for myself. It's sad, not depressing it's just sad and makes me think :-/

Be careful. Most of us are running away from something. And we even hide in the commitments we make for ourselves. We run screaming as quietly as possible so people don't think we are the cowards we really are. -
Hey chip away at those commitments sweety, The world will get by-make YOU no.1 commitment. -
I think GentleDove is right and see what you can whittle down in terms of your commitments-- and then try to take on less in the future. I can understand how too many things on your plate might feel overwhelming.
Just remember, you're only one person. Get done what you can. Maybe it's time to go a little easier on yourself.
PS- We all feel this way from time to time.

Running away and being free is a wonderful fantasy, but it never works out that way.
Your problems, concerns etc, will go where ever you go.
Somehow... out of the very habits we've created... we end up doing all over again. -
I agree with Arcticulates, no matter where YOU go - there YOU are.

I know the feeling. However, running away for a little vacation rather than forever is a lot better. After all, all my stuff is here.
For you, sounds like it's time to make some drastic changes. Sometimes all we need is to change one thing and everything else falls happily into place.-
Oops wrong spot.

The only time I ever wanted to run away is when I thought I was going through early menopause.
I was hot as hell, I wanted to strip and run down the street completely naked.
I mean I was going crazy.
I can't wait for my next coming menopausal experience, I'm sure it will be memorable.
We do have Boston Nude Bike Rides too, not a bad thought.

Let us know. Some of us would be eager to cheer you on or to bring up the rear.

I've done it. I ran from Pennsylvania to Mass. as soon as I was old enough. That one was a good move. Fresh start with out the pity "oh that poor girl lost her mommy" that followed me around there. Methuen was great, then I joined the army. Lived in GA for a few years, and as you said, hated the life I had created for myself there. Instead of creative work I was a corporate accountant and though the living was really good, I wanted to stab my eyes out after looking at 80+page AAR reports...
That second time was not so good, Going from GA to PA had a HUGE cost of living difference and I went from wealthy status to upper middle tops for awhile and it sounds greedy, but it really sucked. I was used to paying for peoples food at dinners, and picking up vet bills for shelters and I had to cut that in half. For me, I learned when you don't have any responsibilities, running off can be an amazing adventure and you learn a lot about yourself. When you do have them, well unless everything is researched down to the letter, it can often be more stressful than the place you are leaving from -
My family always thought I would become a hermit as a child. I still think it wouldn't be too bad to live in a cave or at least to live in a wood, far away from other human beings. I am not the most social person in the world. On the other hand, without human interaction, I'm afraid my mind would whither... and I do so love playing with words. -
It depends what you are running from. I once told a young couple who wanted to move to another city and start over there the following. If you are running without changing what is causing your problems then guess what you will find those same problems wherever you run to.
Why not face the cause of your problems and change them instead of running. That way you and not your problems are in charge of your life.
Thanks for giving me an idea for my next post on my blog, REAL Men RoCK.
