A philosopher comes to my mind I saw speaking on the internet a while ago. Asked from many people around the world what really makes us happy, he came to a conclusion that sounded like this: "Find something that is more important than you and do it with all your heart."
Maybe that's why you feel so good when you serve a greater community, make people happier/decrease suffering and forget (not ignore!) yourself: it's nearer to the "truth".
