I should be clear at the outset that I was not considering doing this, it was just a passing thought driving to work: "What if I was so dissatisfied with my life that I just skipped my exit and kept going?" a la Springsteen's Hungry Heart. I thought about how strange it would be to come to my senses later in a faraway place, realizing everything that I would have lost and trying to figure out how to explain to a potential employer why I shouldn't still be viewed as a risk to just walk out again. Weird.
I'm grateful for all the people who love me, though, and who I love, who keep me from being tempted to such a strange decision in reality.
