#271 - How Shit Works

The longer you stick around on this cylindrical manifestation of matter in this expansive space of coalescing energy, the more you understand how the forces of alchemy interact to create this experience. And the better you become at surrendering to how the laws of physics and metaphysics cooperate, the better your advantage for remaining upright in this weird amalgamation of organic confluence. It's that simple. But there's nothing simple about learning which dangerous obstacles to avoid for maintaining your existence and evading an early departure. As it is this intelligence that affords you the vital awareness necessary to successfully navigate this unfathomable maze. It was the Greek philosopher Seneca who once stated that a gem cannot be polished without friction and a man without trials--meaning our strength is gained through overcoming life's challenges. So, learning from past mistakes while dodging new perils makes you better at harnessing the unpredictable forces at play. It should be noted that there are supplementary factors that will alter your perception, creating an added twist to the reality that you generally perceive through your limited lens. One popular way of augmenting this reality is to introduce Cannabis into the body. The intake of this plant matter initiates a profound effect that accentuates elements of life by taking your awareness to a place of blissful wonderment. Beyond that, many believe that Cannabis has the potential to replace numerous pharmaceuticals to create a healthier human race and that hemp can clean the air through bioremediating the soil. However, due to a glitch in the human brain called greed, the ecosystem will continue to suffer flu-like symptoms until this destructive quality is overcome by dignity. You learn that by being around long enough. Congratulations, now you know how shit works.
