Have you noticed that when one suffers through a bad social experience, they usually learn a life lesson faster? I mean, they say you learn from mistakes, so with every little mistake, you learn a little. Well, I figure when you have a worse social experience, you can learn from the mistake which brought the problem about, but learn a larger bit. Of course, there are a bunch of problems with this theory, like commiting suicide instead of learning, etc. But think about it: a bad parent-teacher-student conference will show you the consequences of not doing homework, and you'll probably learn the importance of doing homework. And a year without friends or companions can show you the consequences of rudeness or acting on jealousy or something.
Um... this was supposed to be a conversation starter, it just turned into a statement or something... well... whatever.
I wish I was in the forest with a dragon right now.
