Let's you and I egg them on to try to get a man on Mars before us. Do you know if they're bothered by how much exploration we've done recently? Also, how much have they done? Why stop at space though? Music, art, literature, thought...all of these could use a good nights sleep and let a dream rise.
Yeah. The world could use a good night's sleep, haha. I love the way you put that.
Why thank you. But seriously, what can be done? I listen to the music I listen to because I know of the thought, care, and the musicians understanding of the underlying concepts. That's why I listen mainly to jazz. The musicians are masters. Unlike whatever you hear on your local pop radio station. I want to change that and have people care again. I think I'll make a post dedicated to this haha.
I just went on an acid trip today (my first real one, where I really had the whole experience) and what you're saying is really the type of thought that I've been having all day, lol.
Here's an old hubski post where we talked a lot about acid :
http://hubski.com/pub?id=37345 And here's one of my comments in that thread, to someone who was considering their first trip :
"This is not a decision to be made lightly (IMHO). If you do decide to try it, be sure that you are in a safe place, with people you can trust. Preferably outdoors, in good weather. Avoid travelling, for your first time at least - you don't want to be trapped in a car or a bus, for example. Don't panic. Listen to music. If you are lying to yourself about anything in your life, you can expect to be reminded of it. It can be scary. It will probably be lots of fun, too. You will get a weird, unpleasant sensation in your gut when it starts - that feeling will subside, as it kicks in. Once it starts, you just have to ride it out, there's no way out except time (and you might feel like time is not passing at a normal rate). It's not like other drugs (well, except for mushrooms and mescaline - it IS a bit like those)." [edited to add this shout-out to BLOB_CASTLE]
I've never done acid. I'm down with marijuana because it's a natural occurring substance. There just something about man made things that I don't trust (it's why I never take medicine). Haha, I'm a living acid trip! Often times people think I'm high because when I'm sober, I act very similarly. Haha, one time at work, my boss stopped me to look to see if my eyes were red.
Trust me, you have no idea. Maybe you might act like you're high on weed a little bit, but an acid trip is a whole another dimension and there's no way I can even describe it to you (and noone really can, so take anything anyone says about it with a grain of salt, except that you shouldn't take too much of it).
Well alright then, I'll definitely keep that in mind!
