Thank you so much, and that is so true. One can really get out of it, and hold onto hope (not delusional or false hope). But what you also said, and which I really did not want to say in the post, was exactly that. Getting "out" is definitely linked to one's socioeconomic status. Sadly so. I would have loved to only garden, grow my own food, and so on, but buying land big enough to do this in my country as I am sure all around the globe is beyond most people's grasp/fingertips.
But as you said, there might be a dreamy trip waiting around the corner! (P.S. thank you for the mail, I will respond soon!)
