When it comes down to the realisation of reality and the options laid in front of you. Do you seek the alternatives in life, or do you stay with the norm, never to deviate away because taking such risk, is well risky. Are the rewards you reap from it enough? If you choose the other option, and you need to change your entire life would you take that plunge?
I don't think many people would move away and leave their current life to chase a dream, passion, love, or to start again. We are so absorbed into our current lives and thinking about the alternatives that we would never follow. Stability is one of the most important pillars in life that everyone wants, but never realises. Give them the option to choose a job that pays extremely well but they hate, or a job that they love and pays next to nothing, most people would choose to do the job that pays extremely well. Why, because it grants that financial security. But some people will choose to do what the job the love. That is what else that drives human beings, passion.
Those who realise this and are willing to starve for a few days, to be in debt, just to do what they love, their passion never fading. How are people able to do that? They accept what hardships they may endure, but that satisfaction, that self fulfilment achieved by following their dreams and passions, weighs greater than that. To dive head first into the dark abyss for the treasure that lies beneath.
So risk it all, bet it all on black, quit the job you hate, tell your current circle of friends that you hate them and find new ones, change the life you lead. Dreams and passions can only do so much until you start to chase them. Have the strive to work at it, and to follow what's in your heart. You are the one who is in control of your own destiny.
