@VoiceOfFr33dom i love that scene so much. And when the devil does his deed the universe still remains! :)

@ajones123ful Sure: drugs can be destructive especially in the manner and culture we reside in. They like any tools can help or hinder. Growth and further experience or degradation and limitation. Terrance's openness around the subject that no one i know of comes close to is key. Life is a gamble. ThereAreNoSureThings.

I think its far more dangerous to encourage alcoholism, violence, sexism, racism, egocentrism... fill in the blank of what our culture promotes. We are @ a point of grow or die <3

@allkindsalways What about things that we cant control such as disease, accidents, etc.? Do we just shape our perceptions around these things? Im honestly wondering what you think.

[allkindsalways]

we dream, feel, think, envision our world into existence. So the question is, what is it you dream into existence as we are all magicians/shamans in this experience.

Dream on
