Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you're off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they're doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what.

Because the only reason you don't love them, is because you're using them as your excuse to not feel good.
Esther Hicks

You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving. The great acts of love are done by those who are habitually performing small acts of kindness.

Loved for ourselves. & even loved in spite of ourselves.
Victor Hugo
