In the words of the great poet: wherever you go, there you are.

There are some things that can change. Some thigns can be measurably worse or better just based on various aspects of the place. However, if you’re running from something, and that something is mostly or all you, nothing will have sustained improvement until you fix the ‘you’ part of that equation.

I moved around the US and later moved to Japan. I learnt this lesson the hard way. While moving to a place that fixed some things I hated about my life, the problems that were caused to me by me weren’t helped until I worked on that part; it’s still a work in progress.
