I love the question and the sibling reply by tgflynn. Yes, this happens, it's normal, especially in your 30s. Great isn't it!? Stopping "living out other people's dreams" (the ones you were told you should have) is a major milestone of maturity. And once past it on the path, it keeps getting better. Add a sprinkle of daily gratitude, an inner revolution of lowered expectations, some celebration of the ordinary miracles around us. Find something to move towards, but not so unambitious that you'll ever get there. And one or two people to love.
