It would be the push that is needed. I keep thinking that if I lost my job, or something disastrous happened (like you had with Katrina), that would be what I needed. I am glad it worked for you...if I think of jumping off that cliff, all my mind can see is jagged rocks to bounce off. I don't see that lovely lake to splash into or a handglider. Can you tell, I am not good with change???
