Heartland

I work in a horseracing yard and to my amazement two lads smoke joints like cigarettes!! £70 per week! that's just f****** greedy when they could share!!

I've smoked pot occasionally in the past but to smoke from the time you get up in the morning to the time you go to bed is a little sad to me!

In my judgment most people lead sad lives.

What i don't understand why some sad people have the need to judge the chosen way of distraction of others.

It might have something to do with not wanting to take a look at one's own life and thus choosing to report and gossip on others'...

Like the proverbial housewife sitting in a rocking chair watching the news on telly and wondering what's wrong with people today, why can't they all just do crossword-puzzles and sit in the rocking chair like me!

Jealousy disguised as moral indignation might have something to do with it, also.

My point simply is, that of all the sad things in the world, you choose to report on the sadness of lives of people who smoke pot all day?

Even i've come to realize in my twilight years that whilst i really don't like or approve most people's way of lives, i've only been judgmental about it really because i've wanted to avoid looking at my own. Though my life may be a little bit better than that of most people according to my standards, it's by no means good in any sense of the word. And thus ended my need to criticize others.
(Which has nothing to do with things like people's infantile political thought, ignorance, stupidity...just their way of life is what i mean...the aspects of their lives that have no greater social effect than within their own limited social circle).

Moral issues aside good to see you Vanessa. Long time since you been around these parts.

@ itnaklipse: Well said!

You seem to live in a rather well behaved area then. There are kids smoking the stinkweed in the streets here..

BTW: How do you separate the chaff from the weed?
You pay him five quid a gramm.

Doesn't that mean they get easily side tracked, cantering along listening to Dark Side Of The Moon on their IPods and eating chocolate?

My thoughts are pretty much the same as itnAklipse.
Well said.

your're totally right I have no right to to judge others, but it's human nature we ALL do from time to time.

Btw.Nice lads, good riders!

Yep, that's also true. When someone says to someone else "stop judging others" it could be seen as the one who said "stop judging" being judgemental as well to those who judge (sorry, Egnlish isn't my first language and it does take me a while to put out concepts). It could be a very catch 22 situation.
Lack of coffee is doing my head in.
Anyway, for what concerns my tiny self, I always try not to judge others when they do stuff I've done in the past- heavily done in the past.
Sometimes the "been there, done that" is a good antidote (sp? does this word exist? cannae remember) that prevents me talking about other people's lives.
But I am extremely libertine and, as long as the others around me are safe and sound and as long I don't hurt anybody (but if they ask to, I'm there ) everything goes, really.
To me, the major point is: do whatever you want but don't mess people up. As long as we are all adults, we are all willing and we all know what this or that will entice is fine by me.
(Mind you, it is possible to go on on this subject for hours and hours, but I'll stop here. For now).
Back on topic, I agree when you say they could have been sharing it

Well said Dei.

@Steve.

i blame the government

The practitioner allows himself to experience surprise, puzzlement, or confusion in a situation which he finds uncertain or unique. He reflects on the phenomenon before him, and on the prior understandings which have been implicit in his behaviour. He carries out an experiment which serves to generate both a new understanding of the phenomenon and a change in the situation. (Schön 1983: 68 )

Perhaps they are only smoking pot to take the edge of the harder drugs that they take all day long...and not share.

People have to be generous to each other!
Start giving.

I wondered where she'd gone. (Well I didn't actually, but you know what I mean)

Yeah and I'm a pot head.

But tend to share...

They are obviously paid too much - That or they must have a very high electricity bill?! It is their lives though ... Perhaps they should share with their four-legged companions, but then again highly strung race-horses on skunk - Eek! I bet the nags would gladly swap their Special K ...

So do we have any tips for these thoroughbreds with expanded consciousnesses then? (the geegees that is!) - If I get to Ladbrokes in time, I'll gladly share the proceeds with one and all - preferably not in Trafalgar Square though.

Ladbrokes???
