I can honestly say that this is the first time C.S. Lewis has been quoted on Lateral-G.

My Favorite:

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.

He was most definitely a very intelligent and thoughtful man, from whom we can still learn much.

I also like the quote from the Declaration of Independance in your signature.

I am fond of this particular line that talks of a Government that seeks to take away Liberty and the persuit of happiness...

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.


Hmmmm...

Been there done that myself.
Many years lighting up to calm down after a challenging day. Not a heavy smoker but consistent.
7 years constantly in the air during my Rock-n-Roll gigs. Practices, rehearsals, pre and post shows.
Went on a 3 day camping trip and got really wasted on the KGB the first day. Next day I had a one on one with the man above. I decided then to set my priorities straight and decide what was important to me. I was a new dad of a 1 yr old son. That is where my priorities need to be. My family.
Failing a $500,000.00 life insurance piss test a couple of months later assured me the decision to quit was the correct decision.
Soon, I found out who my true friends were.
We used to say, A friend with weed is a friend indeed.
Where are they now? Oh! that's right, I don't smoke it anymore. So they don't come around anymore either.

I learned that being under the influence wasn't the high!
It was the ritual of smoking weed that was the high.

Sure I still see some of those friends from time to time and they still light up. Some of them have been divorced, in jail, and or lost their jobs ext...
For me it's been 9 years since my last toke and I don't miss it at all.
