Yep, dear Carmen... you got a point here. :) Jack was indeed escaping from his true self, wasn't he? But let me try to explain what I meant with that last line... it's not so easy in english but I'll try. Well, I think that Jack could maybe think he was finally facing those responsability the society expected him to take- like finding a wife, a 'normal' job (and quit the bull-riding) and in general just lead that normal life he still believe didn't do for him. I think at a certain point Jack tried to follow the rules that the society imposed... and I guess he realized he couldn't keep running after his 'silly' dreams. So, I guess that from his point of view, he was doing trying hard to do the "right thing", i.e. stop running away from his duties. But yep, you are right friend, he was still fleeing, wasn't he? **sigh** Mmm, I hope I made myself clear anyway! *lots of hugs* ...thanks for reading and commenting. :) B.
