Thought I'd beat you here this week. I'm stumbling a bit. Love those wake 'n bakes. Next week I'll try to get the updates done earlier so you can enjoy them at the end of the work week. I can see how that could be a particular high spot, pun unintended but appreciated.
Not that we need anymore, but then, it isn't about need, is it? This has become deliberate choice.
Interesting story. The daughter has a partner, I believe the right one for her, so what a relief that is for her mother. *whew* But he comes with cannabis shame baggage, raised by an ultra conservative narcissistic mother until he rebelled and went to be with his father, a recovering substance abuser of the greatest magnitude. Got a muscle ache? Here, have some pain killers.
So there's this bias to thinking of cannabis as a drug. The irony, huh? He lives with SweetSue's daughter. He stands no chance. Lol! I'll be gentle with him though. Anyway, the daughter has been an easy convert to canna therapies, once she allowed herself to relax into euphoria and discovered it's nothing more than enhanced wellbeing. So when she has a physical discomfort to deal with it's a cannabis administration she reaches for.
They have these charming conversations.
Her: "Ouch, that shoulder really hurts today." Reaches for the vaporizer to take an inhallation.
Him: "Did you take something for that?"
Her: "Uh....yeah......cannabis."
Him: "You should take a couple painkillers."
Her: "Ummm..... I took cannabis, and it worked."
This bit has been going on now for more than a year. We think he's practicing selective cognition. He's an intelligent lad who simply refuses to see what evidence is demonstrating right in front of him - cannabis is a safe and effective alternative to the drugs that are screwing him up.
You can't force someone to use cannabis. It can be a delicate dance leading a loved one to their own awakening. This one has the fear of the piss test to overcome. Corporate America needs some sharp lessons on the dangers of their control of our healing options.
