stop running away from things

I’ve only stopped to realise it fully right now. Like in my whole body. So, while my tears are still drying, I am trying to accept the fact that I’ve been running away from things for the last 15 years, at least.

I need to face my problems, but that means accepting them at first. I have a bigger problem with that.

I’ll take one step at a time. Hopefully that will slow me down so much, I still have a chance of taking a different direction.

I run away from way too many things and way too often nowadays. If there’s a problem or something starts to look like it’s going to take a lot of work, instead of trying to work it out, I tend to run – run fast. Usually I feel like running away is the only option, but actually it’s just that I don’t cope very well with my problems, feelings and the consequences of my own actions or decisions.
