 heard this saying from someone a long time ago. It always struck me as clever and for me very true. This person said," I don't have a problem with weed. I have a problem when I don't have any!" I never forgot that and from the moment I heard it I couldn't have agreed more.  I have been saying that to anyone who will listen to me  and usually get a laugh just as the guy who I stole it from always seemed to.
 I love cannabis. My belief in the benefits I attain from the use of this helpful plant are clear to me.  From the first time I heard about it from my baby sitter as a grade schooler I was immediately interested in it.  The first time I actually got high after smoking it half a dozen times without effect, I loved it.  It was like nothing I had ever experienced in my life and was so pleasurable and felt like I was placed in front of a Spiritual Being.  I bow in respect to cannabis.  In spite of human beings flaws and that some may blame cannabis for their difficulties I believe it is truly a helpful plant and the problems people may experience from it all come back to themselves and making excuses for their behaviors and actions.  I believe what I believe and as with any subject that people find passion for their are frequently many differences of opinion.  Humans seem so challenged to agree at times and I think the one true fact about human nature is everyone is different.  We all like different things. Have different tastes and beliefs.  Even though some of these negative things may attributed to cannabis use it really isn't to blame.  Any person on this planet who chooses to consume cannabis makes the conscious decision to use it or not. If one finds ill effects, it is also up to them to make the changes in their lives to alleviate the difficulties one faces in their daily lives.  If one is feeling they are using cannabis to excess or that it is not benefitting them, the answer is to stop using it. Cut down or take a break.  It's really not that hard of a concept to grasp.  As a person who has struggled with addiction issues his whole life and has experienced the ill effects of mood disorder and depression.  If a person wants to do something.  They can.  If someone feels cannabis isn't helping them or they feel they want to live their lives with out the benefits a sacred herb can give there are plenty of things one can do other than get high.  My point is if one isn't feeling well in life and what they had found to help them in the past is no longer working the right thing to do is find what will help oneself.
 I will say in the years that I have been smoking I have learned some things that I do believe have helped me during the course of my life.  The reality is the way I have lived my life in the past was no where near what could be described as healthy living. I have not walked an easy path.  Admittedly due to my poor decision making and way I lived.  If Life was fair I really should be dead.  I have been so lucky and the second chances and seeming  miraculous instances where somehow I was able to keep my dumb ass out of trouble really are astounding.  I look back on all the times when things could have gone so wrong and somehow I was able to get by.  I see how lucky I have been.  I tell the stories of my experiences in the past and many a time the person I am telling the tale to gets angry with me.  They share that they went through the same thing but suffered far worse consequences than I did.  By the looks on their faces at first their expression of anger and slight disbelief to the reality of the past event I just described.  More is how did this Jerk do this.  I am sure they immediately think to themselves," this Guy is Crazy!" Why would they give him a break and have busted me and my life so miserable?"
 Wake and bake is a very nice thing.  For a Stoners its really just like daily bread.  Breathing.  I have always loved it.  Yet despite how most would think a person who smoked or used cannabis as soon as they awoke would be an unproductive morning routine.  The complete opposite is true.  Many people start their days by getting high.  Aside from that for many who struggle in life it is something that makes even waking up and dealing with another day of this world.  Not everyone in life is happy and glad to be here.  People with depression, or mood disorder problems often struggle so much with just doing their best to live their daily lives had they the choice they would commit suicide and be done with all the ugliness and struggle.  A person who finds the use of a plant to help them live.  Is no different than people who are taking prescription Psych medications to try to help themselves. A fact is for many Cannabis is far more helpful at alleviating mood disorder issues than any of the drugs used not to help with depression.  We all know the reason is that pharmaceutical companies don't want people to be able to use a natural remedy that can help them as they just want to push their chemicals and reap the Mass Profits.
 Though things have changed in the US in recent years.  The awesome ability for people in the very few states that have medical Marijuana programs is a very cool thing.  Even though the Feds still will harass, persecute and crucify anyone they go after.  So much has changed for many.  In states with safe access people can enjoy so many benefits of cannabis.  It's really not a big deal and anyone who knows anything about cannabis agrees.  There are so many ways to utilize it.  Smoking, vaping, Ingesting.  Topical ointments and tinctures.  So many people find ways that with the help of a natural plant helps them more than anything.
 For a person who finds cannabis helps them in their daily lives.  Who is just a human being.  Works hard.  Loves their family. Pays their taxes or in any other way than using a plant does not break any of the laws and regulations put upon them.  They are no different than the picture perfect right wing type.  They are really the same with the exception one person may have a drink and another may like to smoke.  It's no different.  So many people use cannabis who are key figures in society and they keep it secret.  Who can blame them.  When a person can lose everything they own just because an unjust government chooses to persecute them because of a plant.  The oppressors are already waiting for anyone who steps out of line so they can leach their wealth as it is.  The indignities that await anyone with assets that the government chooses to destroy because they use a plant is unforgiveable.

Bottom line.  the basis of me writing all this is to share this.

If you listen to these tips it might help.

1. Anyone that you don't know.  Automatically consider them a Cop.
2. Avoid smoking and driving.  If you do chose to use cannabis while driving avoid smoking Joints. They reek too much.  Best practice is to take one hits out of a pipe of a dug out.  have some type of air freshener handy or a cigarette.  I like to call tobacco ' white trash Incense".  it can mask the smell of cannabis.  Best thing is don't smoke and drive. ones chances of getting nailed just is greater.  Wait till you get home or somewhere cool.
3. if you are ever unfortunate enough to get busted.  Keep your mouth shut. The cops will try to get you to give up someone to save yourself.  Don't listen to them and know that one who dimes out someone is the worst person.  Cannabis is just a plant and anyone who sells it is a Benefactor.  Some of the bravest people I hold as  heroes and great esteem are the ones who take the great risks that helping others obtain the sacred herb can lead to.  Keep you mouth shut! It's all underground.  It's cannabis. A helpful plant. Its not rock or dope. It's not a Narcotic. All drugs should be legal and a personal choice but cannabis is not anything near what dope is.  Some things in life are best left untouched.  So bad for a person.  Meth, Rock, Dope, pills. Yeah. anyone smart knows. Stay away if you know what's good for ya.  Illl tell ya.  Save yourself a lot of pain and avoid that stuff.  Cannabis is not the same thing.  Alcohol is not good but its legal and accepted?  Anyone who has used cannabis and alcohol knows what I am saying is accurate.
 So I could go on forever with  my writing but I am ending this article now with just the hope that someday people will see cannabis is just a plant that helps people.
