The 'Mediocre' Life

At Althouse, "'What if All I Want is a Mediocre Life?'/'What if I all I want is a small, slow, simple life?'"

I commented at the post a couple of minutes ago:

The modest life, the life of home and family, living in security and comfort, would be the "mediocre" life for me. I'm almost at that place in my life. And I see it down the tunnel each day, as I get closer. (I've got to get my kids set up, to where they feel happy and comfortable, before my "mediocre" life comes closer into view.)
