I had a thirty-year career in the IT field, starting in 1966, when we used punched cards for the compiler. I walked away from it in 1996, and never looked back. The changes included becoming involved in a spiritual organization, volunteering my time and skills there, traveling, meditating, and now, writing a children's book and volunteering for environmental organizations. If you are willing to step out of the stream, there is an entire ocean waiting for you. Good luck.
