Seeking Balance i kno exactly what u mean about reinvention, i started smoking daily when i was 13 and im now 21, ive been stoned constantly through out most of the "charecter building" years of my life, as ive grown up a stoner i dont really kno who i will be without weed, will i still find as much things funny when im not high, or will i still be as funny when im not entertaining fellow pot heads.
Thinking about this actually scares me in a way, EVERYTHING i have done in the last 8yrs i have been stoned while i hav been doing it, and now i hav to go over everything again in a fresh light, i kno that in the long run (proabably in the short run too) everything will be better with out weed but as they say its better the devil you kno.
its strange that no matter how many problems weed has caused me i still turn to it everytime as a crutch when things get bad, i was all fired up to quit then something happened with my best mate which streesd me out ALOT and i instantly turned to weed, i kno that there is always gonna be problems that arise and my mind will tell me tht weed will make it all better, but to be honest i really dont kno what else im ment to do, ive never actually faced a major problem ive had, ive jus blazed up and tried to forget about whateva it was tht was stressin me
sorry for going on but ive jus never thot about quittin from this angle, i will have to not only reinvent myself but also re-evaulate how i approach every aspect of my life, ive jus read this post back and im kinda makin this reinvention sound like a bad thing but no matter how much it scares me i cant wait to see who i am.
If you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life. It'll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level."
