Where a lady lives

Q:
Dear Dr. Sadie,

If you could live anywhere in the world....would you?

-Yours Truly, Tim

A: Tim, as you may have surmised. As a desirable young lass, I lived in many exotic places, either with wealthy and accomplished suitors, or fleeing from them (or the authorities). I have loathed many of those places equally, with their perfect temperatures and gorgeous residents and whiny rich people. What I'm looking for in a home now is any place where there is a general understanding that I am superior in all ways to the people around me. That is another way of saying: happiness doesn't come from where you are, it comes from the inside of other people around you. Or Maine.
-DR. Sadie
