If you are at position 1. or 2. you are to be envied. If you are at 3. or 4. you are to be pitied.

One of the many different women I dated over those years used to say "You ARE where you want to be" You have made choices all of your life. Some good some bad, you decided to go down the path that led you to this point in life. If you are profoundly unhappy, it is because of the choices you made.
For the most part I had to agree with her. Obviously some outside forces beyond your control can change your life.
