It can be easy to rely on other people to help us feel happy, but you don't need others to feel happy. In fact, the best kind of happiness can come from you! Learning to love who you are, practicing self-care, and treating yourself as you would a treasured friend are all ways to start your own happiness.

One feels true happiness when one is with oneself and that happens when one loves himself truly. When you accept yourself as mixture of perfection and imperfection you will love yourself and you will be always happy. Then whether you are with someone or not you will always be happy. Be confident, love yourself and be happy :D

Get to know yourself by spending some time alone in solitude. Do something that will help you relax and focus on your mind and body. Alter your surroundings so you do not feel stagnant. Learn to love and accept yourself from the inside out. Exercise and build a healthy lifestyle. Find your passions and cultivate them. And do not be afraid to take calculated risks. Expose yourself to what takes you out of your comfort zone.

I always cheer myself up with music. Music doesn't save your live - it makes you strong, so you can save your own life.

You may not have others right now around you, but you have one voice that is the most important: yours. Not the one that looks from the mirror and tells you you're 'not enough - the feeling that gives you a warm blanket at night, a cup of tea, or just a smile and a sigh.
You are the wise one. If you're alone right now, rest in the strength that you are following a path, and sometime sooner rather than later, the ones you are looking for will be by your side.
