I get high because basically [this is hard to sum up..] society tells us that all these things matter that really dont. Like we have all these things on our minds all the time that really dont have anything to do with what LIFE really is. Animals however haven't created these things for themselves, and smoking pot puts your mind back into simplistic animalistic thinking. Life is about deriving pleasure, I see it, and with pot I reduce the external pressures and I become extremely introspective.
Relieves alot of stress. Plus food tastes better and listening to music is almost a spiritual experience.
I am stoned or High, because i want to be nearer to Jah, the almighty... In this world of today, everyone is in a hurry, without having the eyes on the people, the enviorment, and spirituality. When i roll a joint and light it i drop out of the senceless world of capital, hate and disrespect. From the second i take a deep hit from the joint, i feel that i come to a rest. I feel the good spirit running through my body, saying: "Everything is ok, just stay chilled, give thanks and pray to the lord..." Then i am glad, when i walk stoned after school, on my way home i hear the birds singing, the clear water of the river running by, and think: "How glorious is this creation of the almighty, how little are we; what dumb stuff are we doing." Then i pray, breath deaper, feeling everything in the nature... When i am at home i turn on the reggae or "the good old hippie-music", like Bob Dylan, i lay down on my bed, and just enjoy the spirit, feeling every nerve of my body, when the headhigh of my Santa Maria (my favourite Ganjastrain) rushes through me. Usually i sleep after 30 Minutes, and i wake up 2 or 3 hours later, then i am refreshed and i feel power, an undiscribable power, not power like a warrior, just emotional freedom, happyness, then i feel like if god has given me a great shield, and like i have got reincarnated. Ready for the afternoon and the coming time...
this is true. also because i wouldnt be myself without it. i know a lot of people would never readily admit that about any drug, but its true. ive grown up with it in my life and its always been around me. so no matter what happens i will pretty much always be a fucken pothead and it will never get old for me.
