生活總是充斥着諸多不如意。
我們不願接受，因此想要改變。
然而改變很難，首先難在看清我們是要改變還是要逃避。
國情文化不同，人心卻是相同。愛麗絲·門羅的《逃離》裏面一個個故事，觸動人心。
其中最觸動的是開篇，名爲《逃離》的短篇。
小說裏，女主人公卡拉與母親繼父的關係不和，爲逃離原生家庭的不幸，匆匆結婚。
然而婚後更加不幸福。丈夫暴戾強勢，事事必須順從他。
卡拉沒有一絲自由和尊嚴，完全是丈夫的附屬品。
她跟鄰居訴苦，求助，想要逃離丈夫，就像當年逃離母親一樣。
鄰居借給卡拉錢，又幫她在新城市安排了住處。
卡拉坐上大巴車，奔赴新生活。車開到半途，她卻後悔了。她讓丈夫來接她回去，祈求丈夫原諒。
故事最後，卡拉明知丈夫殘忍殺死了她心愛的寵物，卻只能若無其事，默默忍受。這或許是作者在預示，卡拉的懦弱會讓她一生不幸。
卡拉的悲哀不在於遇人不淑，而是她沒有真正的獨立。
卡拉兩次逃離，第一次逃離母親之所以成功，是因爲她找到了新的依靠。
婚後，發現這個依靠也不如意。於是有了第二次逃離。
鄰居的幫助只是推了她一把，卻不算真正的依靠。
沒有依靠，未知的新生活顯得越發恐怖，她畏懼了，退縮了，也失敗了。
這個故事特別觸動我，因爲我發現我很像女主，一不如意，就想逃離。
現在才醒悟，逃離不是改變，而是懦弱地逃避，解決不了實際問題。
我的目標是活出自己。
首先要直面問題。
不然一切都是徒勞。
Life is full of disappointments.
We don't want to accept, so we want to change.
But change is difficult.
To change or to run away,that is a problem.
Canadian writer Alice munro's short story 《Runaway》 tells us about attempted escape.
The leading character in the novel Carla don`t get well with her mother.
In order to escape her mother's control, she get married.
But marriage is even less happy. Her husband is so violent and autocracy
Carla had no freedom or dignity. She was just her husband's slave.
She complained to her neighbour and asked for help to escape from her husband.
Neighbor lent Carla money and arranged her to live in the new city.
Carla got on the bus and headed for her new life. Halfway, she regretted. She asked her husband to pick her up and pray for his forgiveness.
At the end of the story, Carla knowed that her husband brutally killed her beloved pet, but she only bear it as if nothing had happened.
It may be predicting that Carla's cowardice will lead her to a lifetime of misfortune.
Carla's sorrow is not because of failure marrige, but less independence.
Carla run away twice. The first escape from her mother was successful because she found new support.
Unhappy marriage leads to a second escape
This time she couldn't depend on anyone but herself , the new life is unknowed and scared, she was terrified and http://retreated.in the end,she was failed.
This story touched me, because I found I was very much like Carla.
Once i'm disappointed or failed, I want to run away.
Now I realize that runaway cannot change anything,but a cowardly escape, not a solution to the real problem.
My goal is to be myself.
The first step is taking courage to deal with my problems.
Otherwise it's all for nothing.
