"When tough times come upon us, we do not have the right to ask "why me?", unless we ask that very question for every great moment in our lives"

So then, why, when I feel invincible in my ability to prevail over all, am I pierced with the dagger of unsatisfaction, and self-apathy? Is it the events of my life that influence my emotions? Or is it the emotions of my life that derive my ability to avoid those events that would make my life worse? I look at those around me and wonder how they can be so happy, but then I realize that they probably have a better hold on things.
Where, You must be asking yourself, am I going with this? Well I, myself, do not know. At some points when my life would seem satisfactory, I feel as if there is something lacking. Maybe it is the number one basic need of all human life. No, not water, not food, nor shelter. Yes, you got it, I am talking about the need to belong, then need to be needed, and likewise the need to be loved.
I belong, right? I have a family, and friends, so then why do I feel this way? Some would tie this to people and events that have betrayed me and left me in pieces. And maybe they are right, but then I dont want an excuse to be messed up, I want a solution to resolve the feeling, or lack thereof.
