To Push; to Pull; or Walk Away

I had an interesting conversation today with a friend and it made me think. There are times in our lives when we come to a crossroad, either by our choices or not. Imagine if you had friend at a crossroad which happened to be a cliff instead. You may or may not know the choices that brought your friend to that point. Do you --

push them off the cliff? Hoping to help them move forward to better opportunities?

pull them back from the edge? Hoping that they thought through their options first?

or walk away? Nothing you say or do will make a difference.
