It's already time for our seventh post, this time we'll talk about our final chosen topic, that means pot and other substances.
“Why is marijuana against the law? It grows naturally upon our planet. Doesn’t the idea of making nature against the law seem to you a bit . . . unnatural?”
―As I was growing up, I heard from adults around me, television, authorities and my family that drugs were the worst, that I had to be careful and that it was illegal to use some substances, but thanks to evolution, I had a thinking brain with the capacity of forming my own opinion and questioning what's supposed to be "the truth".
So in this post of Pot and other substances I'll tell you my view on some of these things. The quote above is from a comedy special by the late Bill Hicks, which is a pretty clear representation of what I feel about pot. I've used it without real complications or traumas, even though it was presented to me as "the gateway drug" and many other descriptions that mainly wanted to demonize its use.
This is a short clip that'll make you think about things :)
As for other substances, I'll say that I believe nature has developed the way it has, and there isn't much to do against it. I mean, we live in the same world as marijuana, mushrooms, psicoactive cactus and animals, and just because a group of white men decided it, we are not supposed to use them? No, I believe they're here to help us through life, many cultures see them as medicine, so maybe it's only our concept the one that's wrong.
I would like to have the time and opportunity to try many other substances, particularly the naturally occurring ones so I can have a deeper knowledge and understanding of what they're able to do within us, and I suggest you the same, make your own opinions based on your experience, don't let a bunch of "Don Grafs" (PAZ CIUDADANA) tell you what to do with your unique personal experience.
Have a nice day!

ResponderBorrarabout that it help us so much for our health like cancer which helps to reduce pain
ResponderBorrarthe best is create our own opinion about this topic!
ResponderBorrarFinding your own opinion about things helps you to really grow as a person
ResponderBorrarI'm totally agree with your post. Western society has been made an image about drugs, as something that can destroy you and your life, but this perspective ignores so many ancient cultures that uses psychoactive drugs to find inner peace and illumination.
ResponderBorrarI'm happy to know that you think in that way,
I hope you can find the opportunity to experiment with them,
Have a nice trip!
Good Lord, i just saw the video of Bill Hicks and its great, it's on point his performance and it's so true that i love it, thanks for that. By the way i agree about the natural drugs, they are part of our world we shouldn't be take them as something forbidden
