I'm still sick, but you'd better believe that I'm popping decongestants faster than an pill addict pops hillbilly heroin. Which brings me to another topic I'd like to discuss: drugs.
I have never had the urge to do drugs. I have never done any drug. The most I've done is drink an alcoholic beverage, but even that is done extremely sparingly. I had a fruity alcoholic drink the night I got engaged, but I stopped at that one and I haven't had a drink since (8 months). I honestly don't see the appeal of it. Why should I drink something that tastes horrible and has tons of calories? Because I get to loose my mind for a few hours? No thanks, I'm not interested in paying for it in the morning with a hangover. That's pretty much the worst trade-off ever.
Also, lighting up something and inhaling it is bad for you, no matter the substance, because it damages your lungs. I could get behind eating it, especially if you wanted it for medicinal purposes to replace opiates, but I'm still not going to use it recreationally.
What drug users don't realize --either because they're ignorant, selfish, or too addicted-- is that when they buy from trashy dealers, they are funding drug cartels that rape, murder, and torture innocent people. But I guess as long as they get their dope or crank it doesn't matter to them. To me, that is what makes drugs so immoral. If they were all legalized I wouldn't be so adamantly against them. I certainly would not consume them however.
My point is, don't do drugs. Instead, think of a more useful way to spend your free time.
