I want to run away

It would have to be a peaceful place with no loud noises or tension in the air. I sometimes want to run away from Walmart if it's very crowded and children are crying, etc. It would have to have mountains and trees and a creek, river, lake, or ocean I could visit. I'd want to take my husband or a close friend, my computer, and a phone that would screen all calls. I'd I'd need my books, of course, so I'd never run out of something good to read. A library filled with the kind of books I like to read would be interesting. I'd want a good kitchen, fresh food available to buy (or a chef that would magically put a delicious meal in front of us every day about 3 PM), a comfortable bed, comfortable chairs for each of us, good lighting, a moderate climate, and my cameras. Oh, yes. I'd need electricity to run the computer, cook, and give light, and I'd want hot and cold running water. I don't want much, do I?

I did just once in my life. my ex husband was being very abusive. I wanted away from him. But I had a young son. So I had to stay. I finally left, and came back to Mexico. never have gone back to him.

I would say I'd run away but not alone because I would definitely have to bring my girlfriend and some friends and relatives with me, those that I like to be and enjoy with. It would be somewhere peaceful and just jolly. Probably where Christmas is everyday or something like that.

Hello friend, Since you mentioned a "land of dreams" that makes it somewhere to run to to escape any problems I encounter daily and I have had dreams like that. I actually have dreamed of a land far different from this one. The land is soft enough that when you fall down you don't get hurt. All the animals are friendly regardless of how ferocious they appear. Everyone treats each other with respect and love. Communication is telepathic, so no telephones required. All sickness has been cured. Thinking is the way that things get done. No cooking required because you think it, you get it delivered in front of you.....telekinetic abilities. No bills, whatever you think about you get... obviously the world is one based on what each person thinks they desire, even in relationships. Everything you do is successful and the weather is by your choice. Colors are based on my creation. The interesting part, I don't even look like I do now, but a skin color close to lavender. The man of my dreams is a true golden color, tall, strong and protective. Ah, what dreams can be like. The nice part, if you get tired of what you see or how things are done, than think and change it. My dreams of a land where I can escape from my real world today are always fun I guess I've always known that physically I wasn't going to run away so I did it in dreams and day dreams. Thanks for the discussion.

When I had panic attacks when I was a little younger, I would feel as though I wanted to run away a lot. I wasn't even sure what I wanted to run from, I just knew that I had to get away from all of the things that were happening to me at that time. But now I seem to have been able to work through that feeling and get my life back to the way that things were before. I never want to be like that again because it is something that didn't feel good as I was constantly worried about what would happen to me if I had another panic attack.

When pain and problem arises, there is the great temptation for us to run away. Yeah this is childish but its the real things that comes into our minds sometimes. Mature men thus far thinks the opposite, they will not run but face the problem until all is done.

The thought of running away has always been lingering in my mind. I grew up with a disciplinarian father. With his iron fist rules on his children especially the girls I had no chance to go on dates like any other girls my age. I wanted to run away but I was too naive to take the plunge. The only way is to agree to the first man who asked for my hand in marriage. I saw it as my gateway to freedom. How wrong I was as I went from the mouth of a tiger to the mouth of a lion. It was only the beginning of more responsibilities and my dream of freedom was dashed by the demand of wifery duties. But that thought or running away rekindled when ever I am at my lowest point in life. But again when i think I have gone through rough patches in my life I might as well put up a brave face to glide through the balance of years left for me with patience.

When I was young, it was Canda or Alaska. The wilderness, no people, back to nature. As an adult, it was more an island. So I could support myself, no people again, lots of animals. But there's a standing "joke" (maybe not so much a joke as a wish) between me and some girlfriends about that island. We'd make it our island, no one allowed but who we chose. Then of course, we'd kidnap some guys we wanted as our umm "friends"... Seriously, wouldn't you love to kidnap some guy you loathed and put him on KP duty for the rest of his life? Or kidnap Gerard Butler, or Niall Matter?

I can honestly think of only one time during my childhood where I wanted to run away but I also realize in retrospect that it wouldn't have been something that would have done any good. The time that I wanted to run away was just after my father passed away and I wanted to be able to run away and pretend that it wasn't real. With that said, the thing that I would want to have happen if I was able to run away would be that I would like to be somewhere where finances were not a problem and I would be able to do whatever I wanted to do whenever I wanted to do it.

I don't know if it fits the category of running away, but I've always wanted to just hit the road and travel around the United States. I'm not sure if I want to take a small camper or just hop on the motorcycle and go. The bike would definitely be the cheapest way. I'd have no particular destination in mind other than to visit areas of the country I've never been, such as the northeast or New England states and also the northwest. I still dream of taking a whole summer and just roving around.

I have never thought of running away because I always have dogs to think of. I could not even stay in another place for more than one day because I have pets and people who wait for me.

Not so much.. since i know i have no where to run to anyway. and i am quite happy with my family and my environment. Although i do think f it sometimes..maybe it'd be exciting, but times are very hard and i don't think i would make it for even a month on my own.

My land of dreams looks like total perfection. I need internet access, I need all the Apple products I can get my hands on, a 1983 Lincoln MarkVI mint, all the money I can handle and of course good food. And I need to have it all with the perfect woman. Nice!!!

When I was single i always run away when i have problems and hard to handle, i used to go to a quite and peaceful place where i can think and pray. But now that i am married sometimes i thought about it especially when we have some misunderstandings but I can't do it because i always thinking about my husband and i can't leave him alone.

Honestly my land of dreams would be my own home, with all repairs and maintenance done, and someone to take care of the yard. No dust would ever accumulate and there would be automatically a place and room for anything I wanted to have. I do remember wanting to run away though, but never really did so.

I want to run away and go back to our province. I want to be surrounded by plants, trees and have animalsin the backyard. I want to go soend some time on the roof taking in the fresh air and savoring the silence.

Hi savypat, It may seem strange but I can't remember ever wanting to run away when I was a kid. Now, it does come in my mind, but like you I don't know where I would go. Guess it's best for me to stay here in my home and keeping breathing as long as I can - I was told that was the secret to a long life lol! Blessings.

I've always wanted to end up in Japan. It's my dreamland, after all. I want to run endlessly with my arms open wide in the walkway of cherry blossoms falling one by one. Haha I can't really explain but I would want to be in that place where nobody knows me and no one else would bother me. But if not I'd want to be there with the person I love.

Sometimes when I under a great deal of pressure I will have this thinking,and I want to run away to where no body know me,and it should be a wonderful place everyone in there are politely,there should be very clean and tidy,all work at there should be high pay without no pressure,lol impossible right?But actually just some place can make my heart peaceful,and that is enough.

I have dreamt of the beach where there is clear blue water,sun in the high,green all around you.Of couse there are many pretty girls in the sands
