Confused about my career direction in life

Lately, I have been thinking about what I'm doing as in my career choice and what would make me happy pretty much for the rest of my working days. I'm a teacher now but spent 20 years (age 13-37) involved with computers and IT. Even though I'm teaching students how to do computer applications, I feel that something is missing. I often think back to my childhood when I was hapy doing something I loved to do. I really focused into that I enjoyed solving problems associated with equipment or technical things in nature.

I guess I'm torn to just continue doing what I do and keep my wife happy with that I have a great paycheck and do it for my children as well, or do i try and narrow my field down to something I love (which is hard to figure out what exactly it is).

I feel that a part of me is missing and i don't want to be like my parents who worked their whole life and didn't like what they were doing but did it because it payed the bills.

Your thoughts???
