I love, because my love is not dependent on the object of love. My love is dependent on my state of being. So whether the other person changes, becomes different, friend turns into a foe, does not matter, because my love was never dependent on the other person. My love is my state of being. I simply love. Osho
About This Quote

When people say that they love someone, they are talking about an emotion. When you love someone, you are referring to the act of caring for them. You can love someone without feeling responsible for their happiness. You can also love someone even if what they do doesn’t make you happy, like when your parents are never home and always busy.

However, your love is not dependent on their actions or actions of others. Your love is based on how you feel.
