Where are you?

Today's lyric:

"So long sweet Melinda, don't forget that you're my girl
Gonna dress you fine and if you give me time, make you proud like I said I would
And if the Champs Elysee's no fallacy, I find the world looks like it should
Candy cars, movie stars, street bars, then I could stay a while."

Rod Stewart: "Farewell"
From the album: "Smiler"

At a leaving party yesterday, for a mate who's heading for the Far East for three years' work, at the age of near 60, I was asked if I thought I'd reached where I wanted to be at this stage in my career?

I'm still driven/ambitious enough to want to do more than I have so far (though I don't seek a managerial position again - looking after people is just too much grief!) and I certainly would travel/live abroad if the chance arose (though I somehow doubt Mrs.D. would voluntarily follow me again).

Stop and think for a mo. Are you fully content with where you are?
