Mary Jane

 I’ve been spending far too much of my time doing nothing. I know how obvious that is, I really do. But high, it’s so much more obvious. It absolutely amazes me how this drug brings insight. Pot is a very important drug, really, not to be underestimated. Or ignored. 

     It really amazes me, that with everything we have in the world, marijuana can’t come around. And I understand why. It doesn’t really matter what doctor, or scientist has to say about it, there is so much skepticism and stigma around the topic, that anyone that speaks its praises about the drug, will be shunned by society. There is no such thing as being open-minded about it, because of the attachment of negativity there is to the topic.

     It’s really quite sad. With everything I have seen from alcohol, the lives it has ruined… the people it has killed. That people can’t wake up and see pot for its benefits.

     The more I learn and understand, the more it baffles me… I’ve never been too big on the conspiracy theories, but if I have ever believed in one, this is it. Why on earth is alcohol legal? It shouldn’t be. WHy on earth is pot illegal? It shouldn’t be! There is something very wrong with our culture. Very very wrong… outwardly, I suppose alcohol is more "fun" you get to lose control, let loose, ruin your life, break whatever you want, sleep with whoever you want, and it doesn’t matter. Because you were "just drunk". Not to say of course, that it is literally ok, I just mean… this is an example of what alcohol can make you do that you wouldn’t normally.
      What a great idea! Let’s let our people do that. But it still makes sense. It sounds like a lot of fun, to want to do all the things you wish you could have done normally, that you wouldn’t.

     Pot though, pot makes you think. It makes you feel calm, content, relaxed. It motivates you, makes doing boring or strenuous work more bearable. It makes you really see yourself for your faults, more able to change and accept them. It helps your mind to solve problems that you couldn’t previously. It makes you feel happier, more easygoing. Plus, no one in the recorded history of smoking pot has EVER died. 

     There are no published studies of drinking alcohol helping to better the growth of your fetus. But there is of pot. A published study, in a controllable field, with a reliable scientist. Of course, no one would view her that way, simply because it is "pot", illegal and it has that stigma attached to it. But she has no personal experience with the drug. She has only ever studied it. Imagine that.
