I agree with you that by only showing compassion and love for others will we ever be happy even if they do not even show love in return.

"Faith is the basis of the Path, the mother of virtues, Nourishing and growing all good ways, Cutting away the net of doubt, Freeing from the torrent of passion...Faith can assure arrival at enlightenment."

i do like the Dalai Lama, a lot, especially his openness to his brand of buddhism being questioned
but i'm not sure you can do anything to be happy, it just happens. it's like meditating to be peaceful, doesn't work (for me), since then i set up a goal to be achieved or not. i just meditate. sometimes i'm peaceful, sometimes not.
