I never implied that children are in need of canabis, but ok. Of course people can live without it. People who smoke canabis should be recognised as a culture that enjoy the benefits of it. I'm just saying that it fits as nature intended it to, thus people should not be restricted to it's use if they do so choose.
Highty i agree with you completely. I was responding to GreenDestiny, and should have made that more clear.
Hell ya leave the people alone...all for it!
It's cool :-) I think the main issue to getting marijuana legal is motivtion. If everyone made an effort toward legalization, we could do it in a heartbeat. Those few that make a strong effort to get this on the ballot, I thank you so much. You are pioneers in the history of america.
Kinda off topic, but I just kept typin...lol
allrollsin, I agree that we can live healthy lives without cannabis and that's it's not as important as vitamins and minerals that we really need. I'd rank it at being a #2, an additive we need for better quality of life, and possibly quantity. So, yeah, you're right about the fact we don't need it for survival.... lol I couldn't even remember my own sig. at the end of my posts where I state that it's needed for "increased health" not for absolute health... I get too carried away with how great it can be.
Of course it's not for everyone, but it's definitely something that most people should consider trying, even just for the mental health benefits. So many "healthy" sane (and sober) people seem to be really blinded by reality TO reality (e.g. delusions of perfection); they should step back from time to time to see it all from the weed perspective... or something like that..
Pretty much summs it up why I smoke pot right here...I'm clearly addicted because I want to be.
My medicinal reason- (A.D.D) I personally love the benefit it because makes me exercise my brain. now I feel more clear minded and I understand that the brain is like a muscle. I've made goal minded choices because of it's ability to eliminate my anxiety, reduce stress and clear my mind so I can take control of how much I really wan't to get out of life. I now no longer drink now because I purly enjoy the effect of marijuana and the fact that virtually no side effects even exist. Users may appear to be just plain trippin on somethin, but we speak and do very real things and exist as real people.
Why is this medicin that I truly benefit from illegal by by the government as a schedule 1 drug? Eveyone should definatley be ready and registered to vote for November. It's gonna be awesome if we can all make this happen. :thumbsup:
I've also found that it makes me want to wash the dishes more often, or clean my room... it enhances my oganization skills so then I put it to use, and suddenly parts of the house are back to normal without much memory of it... great auto-pilot effect for menial tasks.
Destiny i am with you on that one. I find the menial tasks like an all night prune session or big feeding to be a completely more tolerable experience if i eat some edibles beforehand. Its like night and day.
When i am within the influence it makes those menial tasks more important and therefore are performed with more focus and care. Truly words cannot convey the beauty of this.:hippy:
I love Erowid, thanks for the link to the "10 Things Every Parent..." I am definitely printing out lots of those to give to anyone who hassles me.Quote:

Like Dr. Ron Paul said, "you look a little overweight son, should the government come put you on a diet?" :D
And when ya compare obesity related deaths to cannabis deaths... Write your senator for a WEA, a weight-enforcement agency in your state! Think about the children...
:rastasmoke:
o btw, the other link, the women's substance guide (and I couldn't see how it was gender specific, looked pretty general info) was really full of misinformation towards the bottom... mostly things not to be discussed here...
peace :rastasmoke:

I smoke everyday but I use it responsibly
I've been smoking for over 5 years now
At one point in my life, I would wake and bake and smoke all day long, but then I realized I couldn't live that way.
Now I enjoy a nice toke at night an hour or two before sleeping.
