Always rebel. The further you get from something, the wider the perspective. That way you can come back to it at your own pace. Be as familiar with it as you want to be. Choose how it will influence you, and if you don't like it, you already know how to get away. Those who don't rebel are consumed by everything. They live in the shadow of fear and are afraid of the things that aren't really there. I rebelled in my youth not as an act of defiance, but to gain a wider perspective. Then I came back to those who would oppose me, to a place where I was comfortable. If I hadn't, I would have traded one influence for another, and replaced my supposed superiors for others. Always rebel.
