Why is it important to be Armenian?

I have been struggling with this issue all of my life (age 49). My Father was born in Fresno His father died when he was about 10 years old.
There has been no history of armenia except for the genocide.
I have met lots of armenians in the US but we seem to treat each other like just another american guy.
I went to Turkey a few years ago and I wore my proud to be an armenian t-shirt at the grand bizarre and i was met by many armenians and louded a hero or at least felt like one.I was taken to lunch and dinner and we were treated like long lost friends.
So I ask myself the subject question.....
