Comments: Reason #99 Why Smoking Crack Is A Bad Idea
Integration. Blending many unique individuals together to make one society. Trying to move within the norm, the flow of the current, is almost impossible, due to society, and it's often unjust,and unfair judgements, restrictions, and rules placed upon others, due to being different. Even though we are claiming to be a society of integration of many categories, there are barriers that stand to make us stop, and realize that we really do have to fit in the 'normal box'to count in 'regular' society. Try as many might, they will never fit into that box. I frankly enjoy my life outside of the box.I really don't like the 'norm'. I love the people I meet outside of that box. They breathe life into my soul.
Whatever it takes.(to get through the day, crack/meds/pot/wine) I, too, feel the pain and have so much empathy that I can't find words to say what I feel for people who suffer any form of chronic, life long agony whether it is of the mind or body, because within that body, within that mind, is a spirit, someone beautiful. A Beautiful Spirit. To see a person for who they really are, and beyond the extreme presentation they may offer in a visual perspective, or a mental perspective, is a gift, and if one has it, we must embrace it and tell others what they are missing.
