How I Became A Grease Monkey and Found Freedom

I really did have everything that anyone could want (materially): my MBA and a single focus had brought me to the top of the corporate world and I was VP of finance at 37. I was controlled and in control. My success really did seem to be without limits. At that time, my wife left me because she almost never saw me. It had an impact, but not much (or at least that is what I thought).
For several months before the realization, a pressure was building in me. I would feel overwhelmed by total emptiness – out of nowhere. I felt like I was running, but I didn’t know what I was running from. At times, I felt panicky and tense, but never let it show. My wife’s leaving was the last straw; she just walked out. I was shocked and stunned, but didn’t think about it.

Would the excitement and exhilaration of being on the shaky bridge, versus the more mundane experience of being on the solid bridge, promote romantic attraction?
Or, to put it simply: Does adrenaline makes the heart grow fonder?
The answer? Indeed, it does.
