The magic happens there.<br \/>\n07.\/ A bunch of really awesome curses. Tip: if you want to swear really well, tack a number on there. Watch: &#8220;Seventeen jerkmonkeys!&#8221; It is a fantastic expletive.<br \/>\n06.\/ That things going on in the world around me are important, and worth knowing about.<br \/>\n05.\/ A good argument, with a good arguer, can be really fun.<br \/>\n04.\/ Distraction techniques for sad days: Buffy, Twilight, a day at the cinema, a call to Lauren; these can really turn around my mood.<br \/>\n03.\/ Greater understanding of compassion, and empathy.<br \/>\n02.\/ To enjoy the silly! There will always be good and bad, and to remember the Good when the Bad comes a-knockin&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>and the most important?<\/p>\n<p>01.\/ I am Loved. I am special. I am worthwile. <\/p>\n<p>Aaron, 1. You better be reading my internet website. If I have to tell you about this post, you&#8217;re a jerko. 2. Thanks for being a friend. You&#8217;re super great. 3.
