Up and Leave

Nobody who knew him, albeit a very small circle, had any idea that one day he would simply up and leave, separating himself from the demands of the modern world. He now recalls not even being sure that he could do it at the time. There was nothing that drove the decision, albeit just a motivation to lead an alternative life, and to break from the pitfalls of the world as we know it.
