There's a pop song out right now that asks "Where Are U Now?" This is a very difficult question for a lot of people. They compare themselves with the Jones, considering they should be someplace that isn't even on their radar (and they likely wouldn't be happy there anyway).
It takes a strong and faithful person to really admit where they are - to him or herself or to others. It's not correct to check a box where he would like to be or where she thinks she should be. To honestly know your own strengths and weaknesses creates a powerful understanding of the possibilities.
A better question is retrospective - where have you been? It's about your growth as a person, your community and family development. It's also about how the nation has grown and how we can set up our goals to meet our ideas - and work together to combat social problems.
Take a look at back down your path to see where you've been... you may be surprised to see where you are actually going. And check out when and where people have come to this country. It's an interesting three minute video about demographic shifts that may show you where there's opportunity for you to grow further.
