09/27/12 THINKING BEYOND THE OBVIOUS
The farther a spacecraft moves from the gravitational pull of its home planet, the easier it is to escape that world.
The further a person moves from those who love them, the easier it is to leave them completely.
Escaping the pull of destructive influences is good, but it is really important that we consider the sacrifice to be worth the objective. There comes a moment when a relationship reaches the "point of no return."
What a shame when the new destination is less noble than the point of origin.
