Yeah, that's why I made this thread actually.

I feel very strongly that canncom needs the occasional breath of fresh air as it were; so many of us feel persecuted, feel the need to be secretive- and then there's all the kids talking about hiding shit from their parents- I just don't think it's healthy to have to sneak around, and that is why I resent the anti-cannabis laws so strongly, because they make even people who WANT to be honest and ethical and open turn into sort of hermits or outcasts because we fear the judgement of those around us, and of the law.

Most of my close friends knew of my grow actually, and they all asked, "Aren't you worried about being so open?"
But when it comes down to it, I knew I could trust them and count on them (as I found out when I bailed- they really came through), and they appreciate that trust as the gift it is, and wouldn't betray it.
