Welcome to 30...the new 20?

Laying here on the couch on the morning of my 30th birthday I don't feel any different.  My fear that magically at midnight last night I would suddenly be beset with pains and ailments where there were none was proven wrong:).  This birthday has been one of reflection and contemplation.  Unfortunately a byproduct of this reflection is that I don't entirely want to do anything, which is a problem for the HyWy, friends, and other well wishers.  All week I have been fielding questions.  What are you going to do?  Are you going anywhere?  It's not that I'm not happy for by birthday, but it's just that I feel like some of the things we have done in the past restaurants, bars, clubs, etc. is boring.  Sure I want to see friends, but more importantly I have been wanting to consider what this means for me.  Am I where I want to be?  What changes do I need to make in my life to push or challenge me?  How can I achieve greater happiness on a daily basis?  Am I so caught in a routine that I am blissfully complacent as I watch birthdays start to roll by?  I told the HyWy that I feel like the celebrations began several months ago as we have been taking a series of short regional trips.  I don't believe that the celebration begins and ends today.  I read a quote today that said 30 is 365 days of self discovery and that one is not truly a thirtysomething until they turn 31.  Here's to the next decade and may it better than the last.
