That's an awesome prologue that I don't think is depressing at all. As for what to do with your life. I had the same conversations with myself for years. I kept saying that I thought I'd already be living my life by this point instead of doing things to get to my life, but I think I'm okay now with what my life is. It helps that I like my job, horrible boss issues aside. But I don't agree for a second that we're just supposed to fade away because we're at "middle age." Lots of people do very important things in their later years. So maybe that time will come yet, maybe when the kids are out of the house and you have more freedom (and money) to really do something. I know what it's like to feel like you're just biding your time until your life really happens, but I think it's okay to make the best of how things are now and enjoy the little moments you have until the big ones happen.
