LOL Whirlibird. We ALL do. Well, maybe not movies for me….books! Who wants to give up the ease and yes, safety of modern medical care….fresh veggies in January…electricity and devices…. But if worst came to worst….does a person have what it takes to set it all aside and begin again under whatever conditions they find themselves in? Or would they slip into depression over all the loss? Or would they fire up with fury and …become crazy dangerous? All of the above. [sometimes all those reactions in the same person!]
Some rural folks are idiots and dangerous. We all know some of them. So are some urban folks. We all know some of them too. And there are splendid folks in any category. But….if urban folks plan to ‘run for the hills’…..they had better learn the skill sets needed for the location they choose.
I’ve lived urban ….worked inner city urban. I learned the ways and means of that environment after being rural since birth. But…I chose rural…it suits me.
