They rather put out your light than find their own. They don't have the ability to see beyond the false sense of happiness they get from destroying others.

You were given the gift to see the truth. They will have an army of people that are like them and you are going to feel alone. However, your family in heaven stands beside you now. They are your strength and as countless as the stars. It is time to let go!Love, Your Guardian Angel
