> Back to depression it is? For some people, I suppose. For others, a non-trivial point of the work is to learn not to care that other people don't care. It's about improving yourself, changing the relationship you have with the only person you will always be with, regardless of what other people might say, think, or do — that their behavior is entirely about them and has nothing whatsoever to do with you. And that trying to make their behavior about you is just as much an ego-trap as the more obvious things you'd associate with that notion. It's pretty remarkable the degree to which a little compassion and self-awareness can take the sting out of other people's lacking those things.
