"We" versus "I"

I'm the only one left in my close group of college friends who is an I. This struck me earlier today when I got a text from a friend that began by using the pronoun "We..."

I like myself a lot. I'm generally very happy with the person I am, and I feel like I have a lot to give to the world. I've seen a lot, withstood a lot, accomplished a lot... I'm strong. I can do this. I've got this life thing, I promise.

Just, every once in a while, I'd like to be part of a "we." It's about more than just physical companionship and romantic feelings. It's about belonging to something that is more than yourself.
