Great... and it's good that you took a break, rested, thought things out, and then came back!
Injuries are a fact of life and can be difficult to deal with... but like you, I don't think that I could ever quit outright.
In my case, what helps keep me in a good frame of mind is that my priorities have changed/evolved through the years.
I started with a real bow at age 12 and took occasional breaks in my younger years - but now at 68, I look back and realize that it's part of who I am.
I've matured and mellowed through the years, I have nothing to prove - I feel relaxed, comfortable, and as happy as ever with bow in hand.
