The old American Dream was to live close to home, buy a nice little house and raise a family -- in other words, stay comfortable.
We lived in five cities in our first ten years of marriage. Upward mobility in my job pretty much demanded movement.
That was tough, particularly on Mrs. DeltAlum who had to make new friends every couple of years. And, her whole family lived in reasonably close proximity to each other -- except for us.
Now, there's no way she would go back "home" to live.
There's a lot to learn and enjoy and accomplish out in the world.
You may never find those things if you stay too close to the womb.
