If you HAD to explain a high to someone how would you do it without getting them high

This is how I would explain it:

You get a buzz, and you feel like you're looking into reality from another corner of reality that no one else sees unless they're stoned and you kind of feel like you're not in the sober reality but you're still functioning in it. Would you guys agree with that?

(Of course, no matter how anyone explains it the only way to know is to experience it)

bump. cmon people

Copied from an old post explaining to a newbie how it would be:

time slowed down to a snail pace... seconds feel like minutes, minutes like hours... you thoughts are racing... you think a thing and it makes you thing about another one, and this one makes you remember about another one, and so on... you think millions of things in minutes... probably you start laughing madly at this point... everything seems SO fun...

One day, when i have enough patience to sit down and write down all the history of my first time, i will make a better and more detailed description. While this day doesnt come, the description above is the best i have.

I've seen threads like this before....but....It's like everything is a little brighter, your brain feels either a little slower or faster, you feel light pressure on your body(but it feels good), music sounds way better and intense, actually everything is a little moe intense, food taste great. Depending on how much you smoke the effects are intensified, and the type of weed you get may change the effects.

that was a lot more detailed then mine, thanks.
Also, you never know when Mr. Paranoia is going to jump at you.

Mr. Paranoia I hate that sonofabitch. I would say it would I said when I got high the first time. "It's Floaty Time".

enlightenment ,opens the mind to new ways of thinking and relaxing.:D

feels like your whole body, inside and out, is supported by a layer of soft cotton. and that cotton lifts a viel off of your eyes and all of the sudden you see and understand things that you normally dont. but in order to make room for all these new understandings and thoughts, you have to put that veil elsewhere. like over your ability to solve complex mathematical figures.
you float around in this buzzing layer of soft cotton, new and beautiful and sometimes scary things meddling about in your brain.

Your attention span is broadened, so that it is more difficult to focus on a particular object. Perception of time is altered, so that one minute may seem like 10 minutes. Also, gigliness.

In comparison to alcohol; Alcohol makes you feel different, cannabis makes you feel good.

i believe what it ACTUALLY does is helps to connect the mind, body and soul. So instead of just one part of your brain reacting to your stimuli (ie, your reality), it's ENTIRE SELF reacting.

EDIT: the different perception of time comes from being aware of the current moment. This happens when the mind and soul are corresponding-awareness can be achieved from meditation as well
