I smoke the "Gateway" drug for the soul purpose that it makes me happy. I am a very serious,paranoid,over protective, kinda guy. When I am not smoking(which is rarely ever) I view the world like a mob movie. I am very cautious on who I come into contact with,talk to,look at. I am always watching people out of the corner of my eye. When I smoke marijuana it calms me down. It makes me feel less paranoid and more friendly. To my wife, smoking marijuana for me is like taking my daily med's. In fact that is what she calls it.
