The Wars Fought On Drugs, Jerry Garcia, Kurt Cobain & Purple Rain

Recreational drug use and abuse, as we have known it, has come to a swift end. Not the use, itself, and not the abuse, but the end of an age of ignorance regarding those plant based drugs, which can be used safely for medical and shamanistic treatment of myriad diseases, and those plant-based drugs which cannot be used safely, without the supervision of psycho-pharmacologists and pain management specialists. If the measure of safety is overdose and death rate, then we have a responsibility to get schooled on how the war on drugs has deepened our dependence on the things we do not need. No matter what we have ever thought, regardless of the drug or no drug experience, it is time to stop judging and start just saying “yes” to life.

Something has gotten inside us—an idea that we have something to fear—the war on drugs has always been what it said it was—all wars are fought under the influence of drugs.

Think about it in a small way—what was the last conflict that arose in your own life? What were you fighting about? What substances (even the legal ones!) were involved in the escalation? Were you hungry when you fought?

Every war on drugs is a lost cause. We are united through all our difference by one cause whose "effect" made us. This “cause” is called LIFE. Fill it with your chemical light, and see how free of all kinds of nasty chemicals we can be.

Rejection can protect or deflect. Connection is the cure. Do the right thing—get educated about the classifications, applications, and side-effects of the drugs you or your family members are taking. If you see something, say something. If you have questions for your doctors, ask. If you are worried about your child’s consumption of sugar or media, talk about it—none of us is alone, and the one life we can save, is priceless—it's our own, and every day, is a daily operation to remember what we are really made of...light, sound, and the energetic vibration.

Buy a hoodie. Add a heart. Raise the frequency of your goodbrain waves and make this "one wild and precious" solstice your deep sensation.
