I'm saying, 'It's easy to run'.
We run because that's how we learnt to survive. Cast your mind to Forrest Gump. As a young child, with braces on his legs and a stutter in his voice, boys teased him and threw rocks at him. What was his response? He did what most of us would do in that situation. He ran. He ran so fast, the braces broke off his legs and he developed speed. 'Run, Forrest, run!'
In those times it makes sense to run. Though, you might suggest, our coping mechanisms over the years have been to resort to a Forrest Gump mindset. Run. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think, in difficult circumstances, our first inclination is to run.
