Life changing moments

[BUZz UK]

until recently i was a mess. Taking every drug you could name and more (except crack and smack). took acid about a month and a week ago, and haven't touched anything except booze and weed since. I got a long way to go to get my life back together, but it's all good now. i think acid helped me get rid of a self destuctive part of myself.

My buddies and I were driving down some country road through the woods and we got his moms pasatt up to 130...then the road stopped. We almost hit a tree but fortunately my friend swerved and we rolled the car 6times hit a tree, bounced up into the air and hit another tree. I had hit my head on the ground when we were rolling and all 3 of us were kinda outta it, then from out of nowhere this lady come running up to us screaming "OMG they're dead!!! they're dead!" right in my face. I was sitting there looking at here thinking "I'm fine. I'm not bleeding, nothings broken. Maybe I am dead?" it was pretty scary.
the car was all crumpled up like a foil ball but all 3 of us lived. I didn't even check myself into the hospital. Something I vividly remember though was about 30yards ahead of us was the car battery, and right next to it was a pack of smokes my friend had in his front shirt pocket. That shit boggles my mind to this day.

Wear your seatbelt.

Oh, just another quick one...I'm sure a lot of people can relate to this one.

The first time I hiked up a really high mountain and overlooked the vast horizon. That feeling of being on top of the world...

Hmm...Life changing moments.
It's sad reading about the people who've been altered by circumstances they had no control over. Most of my misery can be attributed to the choices I've made.
I stole some candy from a Cub Foods grocery store when I was only eight years old. My brother still takes responsibility for sending me in there to do the deed. I got caught the moment I set my foot past the automatic doors. I was guilty of stealing candy and was ordered to rehabilitate myself (at eight years old) at a "clinic" for thieves. I was the youngest person in the room. Around me where people who were convicted of grand theft auto and elaborate robberies that I couldn't scheme in my wildest dreams. As the spotlight went around the room, I realized how petty of crime I had been convicted of and felt ashamed that I couldn't speak sincerely of operations of grandeur, even though I was having serious sugar withdrawals. I have always been very critical of myself. I remember throwing a fit and distancing myself from my peers when I contracted the chickenpox and no one wanted to play with me. I grew older, but with the same mind. As a teenager, I stole many things from my family, friends and other unsuspecting people. By this time I had been involved with drugs and most of what I stole was sold for ecstasy, bars, marijuana and other illegal substances. I spent all summer away from my home, only to comeback when the road was empty and I had nowhere else to go. I would eat at home, sleep at home, then when I got ready to get high, I would steal from home and share the benefits with the friends who were paying my way most of the time. Thievery is an easy method of acquiring what you want without any obligation to schedules and strenuous work. So I contributed to our high by doing what I was good at and what was easy. I forgot my family. I had my own family of drug-seeking addicts by then. It all came crashing down when my own father alerted the police of my absence, then he continued on to tell them that I had stolen a valuable ring of his and I was taken to jail when I arrived at my home. I lost touch with some very close friends because of my habits. I gave up on my family and the guilt that ensued caused me to give up on all my friends and myself. I've been a ghost to the world I used to know, nestled away in my room, only to rise again on those good days when I feel equipped to take on every day pressures. I can't shy away from the sunlight forever.

Watching someone get their brain blown clean out and the back half of their head go with it changed me - concidering i was about 7 or 8.

Smoking weed for the first time.

Finding out the one woman i love didnt love me.

Having 8 police officers with loaded MP5's pointing at me in my own house changed me - i got raided.

My friend commiting suicide on the London Underground fucked me up pretty badly - all over something silly. He'd had a brain tumor - he was a great soul.

Watching people who i've been around nearly my whole life go to prison.

The world is fucked - then you smoke a joint and realise it's not all bad [just 99% of it]



Being arrested and wrongly accused of an attempted robbery.

[JunkYard]

the first time I busted a nut, lol

[Metaphor]

When my ex girl moved to florida, and left me all alone in nyc. I knew it was comming for a while but i didnt believe it until she was gone.

Getting arrested with 4-5 grams of bud and 1800$ cash. dosent look good on, a 17yr old. Being handcuffed, waiting in a cell indefinatley, getting treated like a murderer or rapist.

The first time i heard Loveless by My Bloody Valentine. Blew my mind and totally changed my outlook on what music can be, and is.

All of my psychedelic experiences have changed me in ways i couldnt begin to explain, and you wouldnt be able to understand till youve tried it. (not saying taking psychedelic drugs is a good thing for anyone else, nor advocating their use, but simply that they have played a hue part in molding my mind).

The moment i comprehended how insignifigant a single humans life is and that no matter what we do we will still be subatomic organisms compared to the universe.

The following quotes were each spoken by my friends, and have seriously changed my life.
"Its amazing how the beauty of life can be so easily portrayed in something as simple as a flower"-my friend

"Frogs see in two dimensions, so just because we see in three dosen't mean thats all there is" - a friend quoting someone she met in rehab.
