Take the chance while you can. Just remember, you can escape your life for awhile, but you'll have to change your life to be happy in the long run.

I don't regret any of the time I took off from lawyering, but you've got to have a home to come back to eventually, and you've got to make your life at home as good as it can be. Otherwise you'll just be looking for another escape in a couple of years.

That said, there's a big wide wonderful world out there that you should get to know better while you can. I hope you enjoy it!
