Your questions, Haim, are very important. In fact, they are central - especially for those of us who are no longer young, and do not "suffer" anymore from the delightful delusion that we have plenty of time ahead, enough for everything.

I can see that many of my friends actually work longer and harder as years go by. Very few are slowing down.

Quality of life is not easy to define. I do like my car and my computer. Watching (even) National Geographic on HDTV is a lot of fun. When my elderly mother exchanges emails with her grandchildren, that is also quality of life.

After a few decades in the trenches, I still like my job. Despite (normal) ups and downs, on balance it is still interesting and stimulating.

If there is one thing I could use more, that is peace of mind. But, in part, that's because I'm not being smart -- instead of going out to a lake, I'm sitting here by the computer... :)

Happy Father's day... enjoy it!
