TWD, Survival Rule Of The Week: You can’t run from problems

1) You Can’t Run From Your Problems

This week’s episode of The Walking Dead focused heavily on Maggie and referenced the many problems she was trying to get away from. These include Negan, her and Georgie’s mission to help other groups constantly failing, and most recently, the Reapers. Sadly, Maggie learned (In more ways than one) that you can’t really escape your problems, perhaps even less in a zombie apocalypse.

Now, what a person’s problems may be will depend on the person and their specific circumstances. I think it’s safe to say that, even if you do manage to get away from certain problems, they’ll simply be waiting for you when you get back.

…Like Maggie’s issues with Negan.

Don’t get me wrong, they’re warranted, but was she just going to abandon her friends forever? It wasn’t like Negan was going anywhere any time soon.

Similarly, certain problems you might have, no matter how far away you go or how long you’re away, will simply be waiting for you when you return. Or, if they’re a problem within you, will simply be with you wherever you go.

Either way, time won’t do much to get rid of these problems; they’ll just remind you that the problem is still there and that you need to deal with it.

Speaking of which…
