I just thought this would be a fun topic!

So, the "jump" moment, as I have heard it called before, is when you take a total leap of faith and take a huge step in life that you or anyone close to you was not expecting you to take.

For example, I recently joined the AmeriCorps because I was spinning my wheels in the job hunt because my state sucks like that (Even though I still love it) so I took my leap of faith and wouldn't you know it, I'm one interview away from moving and helping the homeless and potentially catching escaped Velociraptors! Exciting times!

So that's what I mean by the "Jump" Moment. Share some stories. You don't have to get super detailed if you don't want. Just a fun convo topic. 3nodding

Hmm, not sure if this counts, but...

I met a guy who was all red flags. My friends thought he'd be a bad investment, I was nervous about how my family would feel about it... He was going through court with an ex, he was 4 years older... But I really liked him and knew that even though there was a chance I'd get hurt, I felt he was worth the risk!

And now we're engaged ^_^ And I didn't get hurt.

It always felt like a bit of a leap of faith, to trust that a relationship with a rando I met at a bus stop would work out. Haha
