Embracing the Fragile Nature of Being
It's simply so easy to get carried away by the hustle and bustle of this incredibly tender thread of life, is it not? I read something the other day while browsing the media, and I guess I need to stop and reflect more often; "maybe we don't exist in the future we worry about." There are several ways to perceive this saying. I'll admit, whatever this saying provoked within me right away wasn't very positive or uplifting. Perhaps, some of us tend to think of what's the point of anything and everything when we are struck with the reality of life's fragility.

What does Cannabis/CBD do for me?. Content Warning.
There are so many people against the devil's lettuce. Just simply it's "devil's lettuce". Others have tried it, and it wasn't for them. Totally understandable. Smoking cannabis or any activity isn't for everyone. For me, however, it does so much for me. Especially during this time, during chemotherapy and its side effects.
