Crisis Of Desire

When I was younger than i am now i used to desire so much. To be loved, to be rich or famous or both. I wanted to have a career and achieve great things. None of those things seem to matter to me anymore and i cannot figure out why. I am a passionate person in my life and in my mind. It seems I've lost my mojo as such to speak. I'm no longer the hazy bubble of intangible ideas anymore. I miss that guy:(
Some of the greatest things i did in my past were because of the desire to do and see new things all of the time. That too has gone! I am more than happy to sit right here at home with my dog and a friend. I don't have a love life. I don't know if this is also due to my lack of desire for anything right now. Anyone have any suggestions?

I am going through a similar phase myself. I think I have just come to appreciate the smaller things that life has to offer me. I don't think you have necessarily lost your mojo. Maybe it is just the mind's way of taking some time out to reflect back on your past and find a new meaning for your future? A time for reprioritizing your dreams and commitments and finding out exactly who you are now, and what you want to do with your life in the future.
I haven't got any clear cut answers here. Just like the meaning of life these things are different for everyone. I think you just have to try and figure it out within yourself. I still try to do spontaneous things every once and a while, but I'm just more laid back than I used to be, and not so fussed about all the other stuff anymore.
Just give it a bit of time.
