I Wish You Well

Say to your negative friend, "I see that your negativity is important to me. It has no power in my world." Say to your addicted friend, "I see that your addiction is important to you. I choose not to participate in it with you." Say to your depressed friend, "I see that it is important to you to remain depressed right now. I choose to be cheerful and provide a model for you of how you can live." And always, always, always communicate to them, "I trust you. I love you. I wish you well."
