You can have that and more as long as you own your journey. I can't wait to go back, but this time I want to take a few friends in tow and raise the roof.

To live in the moment is to make that progress more bearable. Hold on to that feeling, AK, keep it safe. Because while there is disaster compounding in the past, so are the positive moments--which should be enclosed in your hand, so as to not let them be blown away by the storm of progress.
The written anthology of your trip to is coming to an end, but I am sure that the growth that you experienced will last forever. To infinity and beyond, right?
100th post, had to make it a good one

Great 100th post yo and I agree with you. I've stored the feeling deep inside me and thrown away the key. It's my hope that people really search themselves and get the best out of life because we're here today and gone tomorrow. We are but fragile butterflies fluttering, full of color and transient. The experience has already sparked so many personal changes and growth I can't even begin to count them up.
Thanks a lot for an excellent post.

Same as if you get Medcal Marijuana.

Before I started growing I bought buds the same way most people do, on the streets or through hook ups and I stand by what I said, and that's that. The buds around here, especially on the West Coast are better, that's my take on the situation. As I said before I went to Amsterdam with the idea that I was going to be blown out of the water and I wasn't. I still remember the highs that I would achieve from purchased buds and they were of a better quality, that's just a fact from my point of view. Maybe your situation is different but I can't comment on that. Lastly, I'm not ignorant and I don't take my valuable time for the City just to report whatever I wish.
Peace.
