AIBU to never feel happy with what I’ve got!

I seem to have a severe case of the grass always seems greener and I just can’t shake it off! I spent a few years in my late 20s living in Dubai, I came home as I couldn’t find what I was looking for which was to settle down, and I absolutely hated my job out there. I was at first very happy to be back home, I then met my now partner and we had baby twins, everything I wanted. We’ve had a rough time the first 2 years of being parents but are finally getting back to a bit of normality and now I'm
finding myself day dreaming of my old life feeling sick with regret I came home and gave up my life in the sun, I by NO means want to be single again but have this constant feeling I shouldn’t have come back when I did or at least I should now relocate my family out there (sounds so dramatic and not realistic) but why can’t I just be happy, i have the stability and the things in my life some people only dream of! We do absolutely fine for money and have a nice home, all our family is close by I just feel I’m wasting my life living in a small town in the UK?! Can anyone give me any words of wisdom or their own experiences that may make me feel differently as it’s really getting me down.
