When you're young, it's natural to be always thinking of going out on a weekend. More exciting the event, the more you want to go. The problem is sometimes parents won't let you go and that puts an end to your plans. For those who refuse to be helmed in, they're do what they can to go to that event, even if it means sneaking out with no permission. The gig is just to great to pass up that some of us are willing to do anything to get there even it means facing the wrath of one's parents. In situations like that, it reminds me of the song "Band On The Run" by Paul McCartney And Wings.
This song reminds of some of the people in my life who dared to do what they wanted no matter what the cost. You can't help but admire them back then because they had the guts to do what others were afraid to do. Even if you're not going with them, you root for them to succeed. Sometimes, you find yourself helping them out because, when you do, you feel that somehow apart of you is with them and even if your not there, you feel that you already are there. The song alone best describes the thrill of going and breaking the rules.
I was never good at escapades like this. I guess I was too much of rule follower than a breaker. Still, not all mavericks like these are grow up to be bad people. Some of them even become a moving force in society. I guess it's because of their willingness and determination to attain something is the reason why they become great leaders, that is if they get a little tamed through the years. When they do, they can use their courage and daring for something good. It's better than being on the run all the time.
