Live.Love.Laugh.Learn

Everyone of these posts has had the same general theme: Escaping. Whether it be through sex, drugs, alchohol, dancing, etc; people use things to escape.

Life isnt fair, and everthing happens for a reason. Those are little snipets of advise that everyone around me has told me my entire life. People die, we get bad grades on tests, people are mean and stupid, and the internet isnt working. There's numerous things that can go wrong in life, and people deal with their problems certain ways.

Some people believe that they can escape the horrors of reality through substances. Drugs and alchohol merely help them not think about the world around them, and they feel they are happier when they are drunk or high. However, being out of a regular state of mind doesnt get rid of pain or problems, it just numbs people from them. They dont think about their problems because their brains arent working right, and therefore they escape.

However, running away from your problems and life isnt always the best thing for people. Its very easy to get tired from running all the time, and it has its wear on the body. Their is no way to escape every bad thing that happens. You have to merely except it, learn from it, and live your life.

If you can master that little piece of advice, then everyday, you are in Funkytown.
