One has to practice self-love to before you can love others. One way to do that is to know what you really want; know what you value in life. If you try to focus on YOUR needs first, you'll find it easier to achieve authentic happiness. You'll find yourself getting rid of those negative feelings easier because you'll notice parts of you that you can easily like.

I loved the part about not being a happiness pusher. I totally agree. I think that it does more harm than good if we try to push our ideas of happiness on others. Great post.
