Are you a burner or a burn out?

What I am about to say might be harsh to some.. It is my opinion and I am entitled to it. It also comes from 4 years of meeting and watching and listening.  There are burners and burn outs. The burn outs are the same as drunks.  I have met many people now who smoke Cannabis, some are very hard working individuals who smoke and continue to work  are inspired, inspire and keep busy. Steve Jobs was a perfect example of someone who burned one often, and look at what he accomplished.  Then there are those who  smoke and sit on the sofa watching the tube, munching and  getting high all day.  They wonder why they struggle and don't make it anywhere.  
IT is the PERSON not the pot!   
My own son is one who burns one - but always keeps busy, I guess I am also.  If smoking cannabis turns you into a slug - DON'T smoke Cannabis. If drinking alcohol turns you into a drunk - don't drink. Who are you hurting ? Yourself.  If you cannot function - accomplish tasks - well  then you have no one to blame but yourself.  You chose to be a slug with every puff.  Life is all about control - SELF control. Our bodies,  our minds. We are responsible for what we do to them.   If you fail and don't accomplish much - how driven are you in the first place?  Don't get me wrong - yes there are times - not often, when I medicate and just need to go and sit and veg. relax. Especially to tame the twitch. Life is short, precious and for the LIVING! So decide will you burn one or be a burn out?

*I'd like to note that I am sent e mails from time to time with cartoon ideas. I usually like most of them but some - I just dont 'click' or understand the point the other person is trying to get across... but recently I have had contact form a gentleman who has some great ideas- I usually have to simplify  - in my own mind, but he gets me thinking and I like his ideas so from time to time you will see : Cultivating Compassion by Georgia & ______
in this case - it's J.D  of : http://www.hempology.org/  
check out his site - he's a smart guy,  he is definitely  NOT a 'burn out'.

Very well put. I am a Burner (in a sense). I can not smoke, due to bronchitis problems, but I DO use Vapor hitters, medibles, etc. On a needed basis. I am on Disability, but I am a Crafter. I keep myself busy when my body lets me. Cannabis lets me become motivated without pain, and that is a good thing for me.
