Totally agree. I've been writing software for money since '98 or so. The joy for me has always been solving problems at all levels. First, understand the business and the problem. Next figure out high level solutions that hopefully involve software. Finally get down in the details and write said software. Over the years I've written systems using a variety of languages and it is still fun. Heck, once I started using git (a godsend to someone whose first SCM software was Visual SourceSafe) I actually enjoy code wrangling.
When people ask what I do I always tell them how fortunate I am to have stumbled into something that I love doing, can make good money, and am okay at doing it.
