Answer 1

Everybody feels this way at one time or another. If you're rich you can do just that, but most people aren't. Maybe you need to try something new - like art, music, sports, something other than what you normally do something that isn't destructive like drugs and alcohol.
Sometimes you just need to get away from your four walls and go out in nature. Depends what you like of course.
If everyone did break free and go where it takes, nothing would ever get done.
However, ....... if it makes you do something absolutely wonderful like feed the hungry, help the poor, talk to someone lonely etc... then you've done a great thing.

Answer 2

The freedom from and the freedom to: the Will is positive and the Judgment is negative. Those four principles of the totality of existent principles form good conscience. Freedom is of the Idea, but we could qualify the idea before taking action and thereby avoid future tragedy....let someone find you.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestalt_prayer
'The "Gestalt prayer" is a 56-word statement by psychotherapist Fritz Perls that is taken as a classic expression of Gestalt therapy as way of life model of which Dr. Perls was a founder.

The key idea of the statement is the focus on living in response to one's own needs, without projecting onto or taking introjects from others. It also expresses the idea that, it is by fulfilling their own needs, that people can help others do the same and create space for genuine contact, i.e. when they "find each other, it's beautiful."


Text of "prayer"
I do my thing and you do your thing.
I am not in this world to live up to your expectations,
And you are not in this world to live up to mine.
You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.
If not, it can't be helped.
(Fritz Perls, 1969)'

Answer 4

If you have no dependents and no emotional relationships to tie you down; and you are single than go for it!

Otherwise bite bullet until an opportune time when the ones you are committed to allow you to do that or come with you, you are free to go then.

Answer 5

Do it. Unless you have obligations like a life that depends on you. Otherwise, max out your credit cards, and head to South America. Adios compadre!
