Confused in Life...

I'm coming up to 30 and quite confused as to what I want from life?
I'm single (through choice and have never been happier after a very violent and messy relationship and lots of off and on silly ones, much easier to be in my own little world), got a good set of friends around me, a pretty good job too (I work in Higher Education, it's nights - it's 4 on, 4 off but I also get all the term periods off as to do as I see fit), also off for a volunteering excavation in August 2014 to FIJI!
I'm not sinking in debt but obviously have a loan and credit card like most in this generation, got a degree, go swimming 3x a week, eat well and even lucky to have a hobby whereby I run my own entertainment website.
YET!
I feel something is missing, like I can do better for myself, I work hard, try and be nice to everyone I meet and life has taught me not to be a doormat but still feel I only exist to go from one day to the next, like there is more in life?
How can I be lucky to have all this and feel lost at the same time?
Is this normal?
What am I missing?
Am I ungrateful for wanting more?

You're not ungrateful for wanting more, I think all of us would LOVE more.
Try accepting what you do have, and don't doubt on the things that you don't have. It may help.
Sorry if it's not a reply you was looking for.
Best wishes,
