Puzzle Pieces

How often do we try to fit ourselves into holes that we don't fit into?

I've been pondering the cliché phrase "Like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole" a lot recently.

So when and why do we do it?

I know i did with past relationships, education, even churches. Why do we want so desperately to find a place where we belong. Maybe not a necessarily place with like-minded people, but people that agree, support and nurture us. No matter how isolated we try to make ourselves, without these key human interactions it feels like something is missing...
Now i'm quite an outgoing and bubbly person, but often times I wonder if the people around me truly care. My family-yes, my few good friends- of course, my sorority sisters-for the most part they all care about my well being, my church at home-mostly, and the list of people and their levels of concern vary endlessly...

But why? Why
