Don't sweat it. If ya get the urge to play again you'll know it and there's no point in playing guitar if ya don't feel it.
I pawned my guitar and didn't pick it up for two years once cause I was too busy going to college and working evenings.
Ya don't lose the ability to play over time so when you go back to it, it only takes a coupla days to get your fingers warmed up again.
Think of it like going backpacking through Europe while you decide whether you want to go to University or not. While you're gone you can learn all kinds of new cultural stuff (new styles of music), and when ya get back you'll know what direction you want to take with your future.
Kinda poetic ain't it.
