Maybe escape to another planet, but in the forest it is very peaceful and quiet.

This will inspire at least some to pack up right away. You've reached greatness yet again.

Love this!

I once quit my job, sold my house, and went on a long journey. Eventually had to return. Now I try to live my life like I am still free.

I absolutely love this poem. I found a size about this-not for the running away part- but for the community. I would love to be tucked in. I love that image.
