You must be strong to live freely in this world, where all people are "drug addicts" who try to force their drugs upon you with every possible threat and manipulation - in the name of "morality".
To preserve yourself, you must know fully: this is not mine; this am I not; this is no soul of mine.
Running Away
We prefer to run away from problems than face them squarely. We are not clever enough to dissolve problems when they are small, so we let them grow into monsters, and then try to live with them.
Travel is one such monster, and it claims far too many of us. We require continuous change in order forget ourselves, our past, and all the suffering it supports. But how can you run from yourself? No matter how far you run, your thoughts will accompany you.
