Brian, I wouldn?t like to intrude much here, but I?d have inserted ? 
contradictory - human - life - surviving, or else ?   between ?valley " and 
? responsibilities ?. 
Perhaps even add ? to lighten up the burden of undue stress at work ??

Or to put it mildly rather than escaping anything in the world , living, 
I.e. having a plausible life or their own in their own (poor to my mind)  
circumstances ;-)

But the shot remains terrific, I agree with you all to the nth

Amities

Philippe
