Lots to talk about, instead of several blogs, it's one.
Firstly, Windows XP Service Pack 3 has been released... yadda yadda yadda...
So just download it and get that outta the way, otherwise you won't be able to get any more updates. Some people say it actually speeds up your XP, but I'm not so sure.
Confidence.
It gives you a sense of ability and strength.
The definition of a hero is someone who "in the face of danger and adversity or from a position of weakness, display courage and the will for self-sacrifice, that is, heroism, for some greater good, originally of martial courage or excellence but extended to more general moral excellence."
Having confidence will bring you happiness. The lack of it will bring you sadness.
It can manifest as going out, talking to people, shopping, getting down with work, and generally being happy.
Think. If you are not confident at all, you won't make any impulses or take any actions. Confidence is the meaning of standing up for what you feel is right, and so it makes you happy to feel like this – you may stand on your own but the more confidence you have the more friends you will have.
Confidence eradicates doubt and unhappiness. It makes you feel like you can stand around anywhere and not be fearful or other people who may be looking at you and what you're doing.
Friends.
Friends are a source of support, to let you know what might happen should you do something and not know of the consequences. To get friends, you need to be confident. Get rid of the idea that the person might not like you, because the fact is, you can't make everyone happy.
Love.
Love will find you. You have to go out and find your friends, but love will find you. Don't look for it, don't force it to come on, and don't go out places just to find love. It will find you.
And finally... =]
