Dropping out, Dropping by, Dropping in, Drip, Drop

I found a website today called http://www.ranprieur.com/. In my pathetic search for ways to drop out of society while not completely dropping out of life, I typed into the google search engine 'how to drop out of society." It as a joke really, borne out of sheer boredom and depression. And instead I spent the next hour reading about this guy who is essentially homeless. ah, the freedom, right?

Then why am I sad when I read it? Why does his way of life fill me with deep blue weariness? Because, I do not want to drop out of society. I have a child and the greatest gift I can give him is my love and show him how to love hmself and other people.
