Simplified Meaning:
When you try to run away from your problems or feelings, you often end up facing them anyway. It's like when someone tries to move to a new town thinking it will solve all their issues, but then they realize their worries and bad habits have followed them. Imagine a person who keeps changing jobs because they're unhappy. No matter where they work, if they don't deal with what's really bothering them, such as stress or lack of self-confidence, they'll continue to feel the same dissatisfaction. This quote teaches us that instead of trying to avoid our inner struggles, we should confront and deal with them. By doing so, we can actually start to find peace and happiness within ourselves, no matter where we are or what we're doing.
