Yeah sounds like to me, "everything around you has gone to crap. There's no fleeing from it; running away to some other place, country, or culture isn't going to solve the underlying problems [Plus, Western culture is near-ubiquitous, globally speaking]. Best to stick around, focus on your own life/affairs, and wait out the storm." Probably not saying that moving is the wrong thing for you to do, just that moving won't ameliorate the things bugging you at the time of this reading.

In a broader sense, it could be more general advice against the "grass is greener on the other side" mentality that so many people reliably fall prey to. Raging against "society" can be just as futile as fretting over death and taxes.

Whatever might be the most sensible meaning of this trigram as it relates your own inquiry, it sounds like the general spirit behind it can offer some very good advice for all of us here in the West.
