Anonymous asked: Why purchase weed when there are so many other things you can buy that last longer than a week?

i don’t need any more material items. i have enough beads/yarn/cord to last me years of creating. not to mention, when i’m blazed i can sit & create for hours on end. my creations last longer than a week. i can find inspiration without it, but it’s seriously undeniable how quickly i bust things out & how much more precise everything is when i make things after i’ve smoked. my wirewrap rings are always crazy good if i’m super stoned. i don’t know why. maybe it’s the creativity mixed with concentration but i myself have even tried to deny the fact that cannabis inspires me to do things i would never do if i wasn’t high. i write beautiful poems, make sweet jewelry/accessories & dream catchers- all things people that don’t smoke enjoy. smoking cannabis doesn’t define who i am. i don’t constantly write about it or shove it down anyones throat. so i don’t really think it should matter. there a million more pieces to me than just the fact that i smoke. i’m guessing this is the same anon that said, “why buy an 8th for $20 that’s the same price as a nice pair of shorts.” i ignored it, but i’m wondering where you shop? because every nice pair of shorts i’ve bought i’ve found at thrift stores for $5 or less- brand new. we have different lifestyles. i want to say that i accept yours so you should accept mine, but that’s not really how i feel. i just feel as if, you are just you, i am just me. no acceptance even needed. we just are.

i was in such a depressed hole before i really discovered cannabis. it gives me an appetite, which i never had before. i can actually enjoy food instead of just eating it. not to mention i had no idea who i was, where i belonged, what i liked, etc- until i just chilled, smoked, & gave myself the space & time to figure it out. i honestly believe i’ve inspired others through the things i’ve said while high. i’ve sparked new ideas & perceptions for the people i love.

call me a stoner,
but ganja is the life herb & through it i’ve given myself a brighter life that i enjoy more than i ever have.
