Don't let your happiness depend on something you may lose. ~ C.S. Lewis
Jobs may come and go. People will come into your life and may leave. Things can break, fall apart or become uninteresting. You, however, are with yourself forever. It's a common saying about leadership in that it is "lonely at the top." If you are at peace with yourself and you are happy with yourself, then you will never be lonely. Enjoying the company of others is not the same as needing others for fulfillment. Seek to be with others but do not depend on them for your own mental health. Be with yourself and find contentment with your life journey.
