Gelfling is right. God, our Higher Power, our Creator, whatever you choose to call it, doesn't want us to live miserable lives. In fact, the Bible says God wants us to have an "abundant" life. I think it's our own fears that keep us questioning and second-guessing what to do. At least that's my problem. I keep thinking, "Can I get a decent job? Can I make enough money so I can retire decently? Will I end up dying alone in some shabby apartment?" Jeesh! Talk about lack of faith. And when I think about it, that's the bottom line - taking that leap of faith into the great, vast unknown.

If a time comes when you feel you should go, you'll know it. Some folks get to that point, others don't. It's up to the individual.
