Just face it

Why do we do,what we should not?Confused?Even i am.Till date i have seen others and myself run away from their genuine feelings,in a way trying to escape reality.The modern phrase 'move on',is nothing but a roundabout way of saying-run and escape the reality.But does that really help?I run away today and i find that i have landed myself up in the same land.I will just narrate a small incident.It was in my school days and i don't exactly remember which class but then it happened that a teacher,(i won't name who?),had some problems and i knew well that she would require my help and i did not want to help her,so i just ran away from the place, to demand help from her,myself the next day.It could have been,like i run away and the next day she needs me again but instead of that,it was me who needed it and i was shameful for my action of the previous day of which she had no clue,because she did not see me in the first place but all i could do was reprimand my conscience inside for behaving in such a mean manner.It was after all just a matter of a small action which i wanted to do but did not cause i feared something,i do not know what.I still feel bad when i write about it,though i have told my teacher sorry a number of times and my teacher became tired asking me 'why do i say so?'.Another common example is,i have seen people like someone way too much but is afraid of confessing the same to the other and thereby missing a chance.I have friends,who have complained about and regretted their not saying someone they liked,that they liked him or her.Probably they thought that a third world war or something as huge as that might happen.Now a days it seems like that the only conclusion to confusions is to escape from that situation and this never helps no matter what.I write this because i find myself utterly incompetent in certain matters and often say myself-'Only if i were brave enough...'.
