When someone asks you "How's life?" which area of your life do you find your focus on in your answer?

If the answer to “How are you?” warrants more than a “Good, thanks” reply, I’ve noticed that the details I then go into are almost exclusively based around how my work-life is. I guess as someone who is self-employed and has no children, it’s natural that it would be paramount in my mind when thinking about how I am.

So, do you automatically start answering about your family, your home, your work, your health, the weather…?? Should/does the focus of your answer tell you anything about yourself?
