Wouldnt it be great if we could be like a horse? Just run free whenever we need too. Run from our problems. Run to some far off place and never let it catch up to us. Life would sure be easier, wouldn’t it?

We can’t. We can’t run from our problems long enough for them to go away. There is no distance where it can’t catch up. Sooner or later, we have to face them head on.

When we do, we may come away stronger or we may come away broken and scared. When we feel broken we wonder why didn’t we run father? Why can’t we hide the problem and run? Why do we have to face what breaks us down? Did we deserve the problem and the solution? How can we ever change a problem of an emotion? Why does it ever have to be the problem?

I wish I could have run. Run like a free horse from my problem. I life though, most horses are caged in. I was caged in. There was no where to run in the fence that I created. I had to face my problem. Now I wonder, how to walk away. How do I walk away?
