Alex asked:

I have been having an itch to do something in my life recently. I can't seem to figure out what it is. I've
tried doing the things I love, play music, write poetry, but none of it is fulfilling the itch. Furthermore,
I'm perfectly happy in a serious relationship right now, so that can't be it. How would I be able to find
out what it is I need to be doing?

============

It's probably more of a need than an itch, but then you can't figure out either type of thing. Certainly
doing what you currently love isn't going to fulfil a new need or itch since that's just sticking with past
means of fulfilment. Although you won't be able to figure it out, you can look around at what you could
do. This should be something you haven't ever conceived of doing before. If you haven't got one, you
probably need a dog, but if you can't realise this then look at new jobs, college courses, safaris in
Africa, mountain walks in India, having a baby. It's outside there somewhere.
