So, is it worth it to get to where you end up?

I wouldn't know - I'm only 43, and haven't "ended up" yet. :)

I figure by the time I'm psychically where I am mentally I'll be 1000 and senile or 3. With the collation of act/feel think/knowledge currently, I'd end up both.

Five or six years ago, I would have said yes, definitely.

Now though, everything that I had is gone, so no.
But, I intend on getting somewhere good again.

I think that sucess means many things to many people. I don't want the big career, the nice house, or the fancy car. I've been sucessful by moving into my subsidized apartment and helping out, at my clubhouse. I'm proud to be common. :)
