This sense of disappointment may stem from an inner void—not a personal shortcoming, but rather the impact of external circumstances. Amid emotional complexities and work pressure, many fall into the trap of believing they need others to fill this emptiness. In reality, your inner world is inherently complete; the key lies in how you perceive and respond to both internal and external environments.
