    I learned that the world isn't as black and white as I thought it was, and that some problems are harder to solve than they may seem to at first. I suddenly realized that other people also sometimes have to deal with this, and that lead me to acknowledge a whole other dimension to people's personalities that I had never really considered before.

This is wisdom, and wisdom that I need in my life. I've done a lot of my own growing up in the past year/year and a half, and I recognize a lot of the same patterns of thought (and behavior if I'm being honest, THC rocks) and feeling. I have assumed complete responsibility for my own wellbeing and happiness, and decided to compassionately let everyone else worry about themselves until I have my own stuff figured out, or at least more figured out than it is now.

You seem like a cool dude, hope you're here for the long haul.
