I think Dear Abby said this a long, long time ago.
The point? If you want to change how other people treat you, you first have to change how you treat yourself. They will either get with the new you, or exit your life and leave room for people who are healthier to come in.
Nice! We should teach this stuff in schools. Too many of our young people don't understand that treating others the right way starts with treating ourselves the right way first.
