My life experience, no good has come from recreational drug use.
It’s caused me a lot of personal anguish in my life because friends or loved ones fell victim to abuse. Seems it doesn’t take much to abuse it.
Alcohol or pot, it’s all bad mojo to me.
The worst thing is I can’t count on people who get messed up. Seemed when I needed to count on them most when a family emergency arrived, well you couldn’t.
Keep it away from me and mine. Let your own families down when they need to count on you the most.
