I don't know you, don't know your situation, but this does not seem to match the experiences of many of my friends who left for a while and then came back. "Spent two years starting a restaurant" and "had to take care of my parents" were not blockers for getting another computer related job in due time. There are few truly irrevocable decisions in our life.

Now, the current job market makes this significantly harder than it was in the 2010's, but that's floating over all of us- if your company does an Amazon tomorrow, would you get a job as nice as you currently have? Maybe, maybe not.
