Third Eye kiss. Try it!
You can even try it on  your dog - I do, daily.
You kiss them on the forehead between the eyes.  It's said to have special healing powers.
If I could kiss you and heal you I would.

Third eye center is situated between the eyebrows. It is generally dormant spiritual center but it’s activation gives you insight , intuition and connection to your higher centers. If you genuinely love someone and care for , Third eye kiss can be a great uplifting experience for both of you.
Kiss the center of the forehead between eyebrows but slightly up a little bit with a thought of compassion and genuine love for that person. It activates the pineal and pituitary glands of that person which lie underneath in this area . It will bring a sense of security and well being to the person. You have to try it with your friends and family members you love and care for. Healing power that it brings is immense. It’s really a divine touch. It has been mentioned in many ancient scriptures, but you don’t have to take their word for it. Do it when you find an opportunity . The more you do it, the more you will see results. Try and find out! 

Sometimes when I'm painting, Storm visits me in my office - he will say 'hi, check out my work and kiss me on  the head before he leaves   ;)  How fortunate am I.  
I can't always physically kiss people- obviously, but it does not stop me from thinking about them, sending them love...  and praying (truly) they feel better, blessed & loved.  
All Miracles are inspired by love.  
​
Who will you kiss better?

2017! I’t’s  days away from a  new year! 
2016 was I believe a good year for Cannabis - As in ending the insanity and sending less humans to prison/court for it!  More states in the USA became legal, recreational (i think they like to call it ‘Adult’) and more medical, more lives helped.  Advances are being made, although the DEA still wants some way to convict and control.  I think this will always be the case, and IF you are doing something you should not- then you have to prepare for the possibility of still being prosecuted and going to jail.

What can I say? I don't agree with the ‘drug war’ at all, anymore.  I am just stating what I see & read happening.  We all understand BIG pharma will also want a piece of the Cannapie, still less will be in jail because of cannabis!  Fewer minor possession charges, and in Canada- wow- legalization in 2017 - fewer lives ruined for possession & growing. Everyone eventually able to grow 4 plants- I hope they do, it is such a beautiful plant!  
You then will also see fresh cannabis appearing  at the super market- for those that wish to juice and add some peppery bud to a  fresh salad! It will be all the rage!  Nom Nom Nom!  The times are changing. Thank God

Fellow Canadians, please let us not forget how terrible it was under Stephen Harper, the constant harassment, serious insults and more.  Patients never knowing which way to go- PRIVATE classified information being given out for everyone to see & note.  THREATENING Canadians (patients, many very sick & terminally ill)  to destroy OUR medicine in with ‘kitty litter’ - or we would be persecuted - raided by the police- shoot our dogs?  YES, a reality for some. 
I felt an incredible weight lifted off my heart when Justing became prime Minister.  Breath. 
It takes time, he said he would. He will.  A new era has arrived in Canada - a healthier one IMO. 

2016 brought positive change for cannabis but some countries are still struggling.  
We can not make them change their minds but we can educate by example.  
Less Alcohol, lower addiction rates for tobacco as well- If you believe what you read. Research it.  People are puffing more bud, with far less harmful results- as for brain damage- long term- careful- if that were the case we would see it amongst all those that did ‘inhale- back in the day, and pretty much calling the shots NOW.  
& More revenue going to go to our schools, hospitals and cities & towns etc. because of CANNABIS. I seriously hope the Indian reserves in Canada are researching growing as well. 

I just bought a tube of ‘Brilliant green’ gouache, for more Brilliant Bud painting!
Now, it’s a few days of painting & praying for me.. no social media. 
What do you want in 2017?  I hope you get all you desire.

So - SMILE as we get set to burn the last bud of 2016 & turn over he new leaf of 2017!
Give Thanks! 

                  Fill your bowl and hold  up your BONG with a cheer!  
                              2017 is going to be a  BETTER YEAR!!

Has anyone told you lately?  You are Mer-Mazing!
Playing with paint as I work on a bigger acrylic, one I don't know if I'll share. 
I'm really into this 'brush stroke' on black thing-- interesting.
It's got a very powerful, heads on wtf attitude appeal I have finally finished the chalk sketching.  Believe it or not- I do not share quite a few painting.. for different reasons.  

I'm on  a mission if you didn't know- tho.  Bring awareness to cannabis in any way, I can.
Normalize.  Help if possible in Ending  the insanity. 
It is said cannabis helps in assisting with creativity!   What do you think?
To be honest I've always been creative, for as long as I can remember and terrible at numbers, history, geography, lol...   who cares! I am having fun 'if only in my mind' at the moment -  Isn't that the most important place?   So  Yes, I am sure it does inspire creativity - I find I can 'think' of many things  when 'high'  but at times it also can inspire a nap! lol 
You make creativity happen. Make creativity happen. Start with a  pencil and paper.
Have fun, play, imagine !!
I don't know about you,  but it is good for my  head, heart & art. 
Back to it.. working on another little bud along the same lines
& tomorrow I start my new painting apply the first brush stroke of paint! Can't wait.

I decided to include cannabis in most drawings if not everyone from now on.
Plant the seed, bring constant awareness to this plant.
Feeling slightly festive- having bit of Halloween fun in-between other works.
Yesterday, I sent the day on a special paining doing much thinking... cannabis heals, it brings peace. Advocates who have died and were passionate about cannabis and the education of it. Thank you.  Educate anyway you can.
Storm has a PAX portable vaporizer btw and likes it.. me too.  
I wonder if they have them in purple. ;)

Tomorrow I'm getting a hair cut! It's time. Chop it off.  lol 
You know what that means ladies... big change is in the air.
The mood has hit. I am woman hear me roar! I am worthy!!  lol! 
​I'm painting a new poster to hang in new zen den " Zen as Fuck"
hee hee hee
Time for me to go paint a fish! or two...  
Do what you love to do!

Tomorrow Count Dabula... with cannabis. 

We are family! I got all my sisters and me!!!   lol    Sing it! 
It's time for the Mushrooms! Today is another Foray day!  We will be leaving soon.
I am amazed at the variety of mushrooms found on the last foray  including a Blue mushroom,  it's a wonderful way to learn about nature as well as informative on mushrooms and how much they effect our environment.  I hope to find an edible one! 
This is a gouache painting.. the only thing I forgot was a bug or two. I can still add them.

Later today, I'm working on a new painting and thinking of a couple of cannabis related cartoons, here in Canada I think a 'calm'- regarding cannabis has fallen..  legalization in 2017 is on the way, still in the United states it's legal here and not there, I find it hard to believe how celebrated the plant is in some states- yet it others it's still backwards! A NewMexico state fair stopped a medical Cannabis provider from allowing a plant or even brochures at a fair!?  WTF. I don't get it. I remember years ago Treating Yourself was at the Women's Home show!  Marco Renda -made sure 'Treating Yourself' was everywhere - The Toronto Home show, garden shows and even tiny town Home shows.  At the Women's show- it was the only booth of its kind -  let it be everywhere, educate everyone. Familiarize people to the plant. PLANT. I truly believe at this point, anyone that prohibits such 'displays' is only contributing to abuse, addiction and even death of generations to come. 

I did read a response editorial written by Duke Rodriguez, CEO and President of Ultra Health which reminds me of struggles we are currently having with Health Canada and dispensaries.  'Dorothy' at the State fair:
​
Dorothy, the three ­week old medical cannabis plant who was proudly on display at the New Mexico State Fair for a mere 6 hours, was the center of attention for many fairgoers yesterday. It was also surprisingly the center of attention for members of the Department of Health and state fair officials.
But, Dorothy was never intended to be a surprise. The entire time Dorothy was secured and under the supervision of the licensed producer. Law enforcement was cooperative and present throughout the display period.
The fact that the DOH is going out of its way to scrutinize Ultra Health’s activity at the New Mexico State Fair is both absurd and a waste of DOH resources. There are several other issues with the Medical Cannabis Program, including dispensaries operating illegally and without approval as well as delays on patient cards, that the DOH should be focusing on, rather than a medical cannabis plant with only trace amounts of THC that was approved by officials operating the fair.
Ultra Health applied for a booth at the fair on August 1, with our application explicitly stating we would be providing at least one medical cannabis plant for viewing and educational materials about the health benefits of cannabis. Ultra Health even provided a mockup of what the booth would look like, plants included.
After weeks of back and forth communication, the director of the Concessions Department notified Ultra Health of an opening on September 6, just two days before the fair was to open. The fair notified Ultra Health that the contract must be signed and the booth paid for by Wednesday, September 7 and its booth must be fully functional by the morning of September 8.
With less than 48 hours notice, Ultra Health complied with the state fair’s demands and respectfully followed through with the booth it had planned from the beginning.
Ultra Health should not be faulted for a poor handling that happened wholly on the fair’s end.
The New Mexico State Fair has beer gardens and an array of unhealthy, fried foods. Neither beer nor these varieties of food have any known health benefits, unlike cannabis, which is improving the qualify of life for more than 30,000 New Mexicans today and more than one million across the country.
To quote DEA Administrative Law Judge Francis Young, "​ In strict medical terms marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly consume. For example, eating 10 raw potatoes can result in a toxic response. By comparison, it is physically impossible to eat enough marijuana to induce death. Marijuana in its natural form is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man. By any measure of rational analysis marijuana can be safely used within the supervised routine of medical care.”
The fact of the matter is that the world is changing. Just last month, Oregon featured an entire cannabis exhibit at their state fair, including a live plant competition and learning opportunities
for growers. In Washington D.C. cannabis plants have been put on display to the public. Isn’t it time New Mexico embraced a plant that it should truly be proud of? 



WE ARE FAMILY.. Please show your support whenever you see an injustice regarding the cannabis plant. The more it is seen, doodles, pictures, brochures - the more it will be recognized and decriminalized- at least in the minds of many - (I laugh typing that) the fact that we have to TRY to make a plant seem normal, natural - wow.  
Ultra Health, is on instagram, please show them some love.  www.instagram.com/ultra_health/   Strength in numbers, it does not matter if we are Canadian or American or  __________ (fill in the blank), we are all striving for the same thing.  Freedom to choose what we want to put in our own bodies. 
The healthier option  for me..  is Cannabis.
​
Time to get ready for the foray!! yay!! 
Have a terrific day All!
We are family! ... I got all my sisters and me!

Have faith... in good things to come! I feel it!  I Am ready!
xox - for all who need a kiss and hug! This ones for you!
<><    ...what a man. 

Here is  the first coloring sheet designed in mind for kids.  Little kids.  Big kids too, always.
Lets start with the little ones ... plant the seed early.
Clear and to the point. When a child asks: What is it?
Please consider for a moment, simply  saying: a Plant.
It is truly that simple - IF we were forced to categorize 'it' we would indeed  call it just that: Plant.

We over complicate enough for children as it is.  
The next thing I would teach: It will not kill you.  Unlike other plants.  
We do not want them to poison themselves and die- this is why I would educate them on those plants first - and cannabis wouldn't be on that list- first might be  deadly: Lily of the Valley- anyday now.

Tell them the truth.
Many people all around the world  use this PLANT for a Natural Medicine and they have since the days of the mummy, possibly more.  Most medicines are made from plants and just like all medicine, it should be used with some care & caution.

Then, I  would let go and let them ask all the questions. I kept this drawing simple ( I have more complicated coming for the older coloring fans with a  little Buddha vibe going on)   this drawing has endless discussion possibilities and I've listed a few below:

-The sun and how it helps plants grow.
-Butterflies and their importance in the garden of life!
-Cannabis buds and  how tasty they can be, some slightly peppery. * before I have any parents on my back about kids eating bud- please we cant get them to eat broccoli and it can be very peppery.
-How many sections does the leave have? 
-What SEASON do you think is?
-Did you know - snails have teeth?
-Where do snails live?
-Do ladybugs bite?
-Why are ladybugs good in the garden?
-How many legs does this  long bug have?
-How old are worms?
-What do worms do?
-How do roots work?
-Spell the word PLANT...

Anytime you sit in conversation with your children will never be a wasted moment, especially if we are teaching them to be better, non judgemental beings, and try to forgive those  that put their parents in jail for a PLANT.  

Have fun! Color!  Crayons, Pencils, Paint! 
The first few that send me a photo of their printed  colored  copies- I will  mail you a post card! Just send me a message  with a photo - the address is  [email protected]

I love a garden! Life began in a garden! 
I was out again all day, Tomatoes. Peppers, Peas... but I am most excited about my sunflower wall! :) and Morning Glories! I have them every where and in a month - I will be blessed with Blooms! Oh, and I planted Cosmos! The flower of peace. My grandma had them everywhere and I loved them. TLC, KEEP the girls away and I should have a garden soon enough! With each seed you really are planting hope - I've had a few fail! A few I thin - they look good and the next day - dead. 
Not in my control. In Gods Control.  Every SEED. Human and otherwise... 

I can't help but dream- daydream, and imagine tending to my Cannabis plants! How high would they get 5', 6'?  What creatures would they invite to my garden ? Bee's I know and humming birds! LOL, a few friends might stop by at harvest time - and so what - I share my tomatoes, peppers and more!  I'd pick some fresh every morning to add to my juice! 
Just as I go out and pick fresh herbs for meals and salads and drinks.

What other plant has this stigma attached to it? 
What other plant helps so many in so many ways?
Why is it criminal to GROW a plant? ANY plant? 
WHO are the criminals?  
Who spends more on drug trafficking and less on human trafficking? 
WHO ARE THE CRIMINALS? 

God put it here for each and every one of us. 
Man did not invent it - how dare man - any man, claim it and why are we letting them?

This toon is for my best bud, Cathy. 
We rode earlier in the week and filled my bike basket with flowers!  
Poppy too! I said, 'All I needed was bread and a bottle of wine and I could envision myself in Paris' ;)  Hee Hee Hee, We had a great day of it, as usual. 
I hope everyone finds a friend like Cathy. 
I miss my bike, I hope it is repaired soon! 
We have EXPLORING to do! 

A friend had some plants taken from his back yard.  I am hoping it was just some thoughtless kid and NOT someone he knows.  He is upset and stressed. I GET IT. 

How do you think I feel when I worry about he proposed future of medical Cannabis in Canada today?  Not being able to afford medicine that Storm needs. Medicine I need. 
I get it.

Someone stole the plants - to get high. Not thinking much about anything other than themselves and getting a BUZZ. The real buzz is the BUZZ kill  a patient now is dealign with over a plant. Suffering - a few months supply of medicine gone. Thief.

If this PLANT were decriminalized and be as IT SHOULD  - a seed to plant for all human kind - no one would need to go around and STEAL it! 
What other weeds do people do around and steal!? Not my dandelions.  

Prohibition is turning people into criminals over plants. 

Not the Plant and not the person - that is HUMAN NATURE, to want to feel good. 

Please THINK before you consider lifting a plant you might see  that does NOT belong to you.  It could mean a lot more than getting high to someone - I could mean them being able to keep their job, or function with their family.. it could mean life or death. 

A Thief is a Thief. If they steal from one with no guilt, they will steal from another. 
It is sad. I don’t think anyone ever trusts a thief again. Including themselves.

I also feel there is an entire beautiful energy surrounding this plant - bad karma if you ask me.  Not a high I would enjoy.  Not one someone who truly appreciates cannabis would do.
VOTE  & GROW it.

I'm painting! It's been a few months, I can't help it, in the winter I can sit at my drawing desk for hours on end! In the summer - forget it, I need to be outside. Luckily, I have a covered porch where I can set up my easel, paint and watch the dogs play.  I started the painting 'Peace', 2 years ago but for what ever 
reason, I only just decided it was time to paint it.
Painting for me is pure meditation, often someone will yell or sigh "come eat" "put your brush down for a minute" lol - hard to do when painting brings me such peace. Just painting the Trichomes took me about 2 hours, I had so much fun .. many hidden symbols. 

I am surrounded my my pets as you can see and there is no place I'd rather be. 

I found painting this so relaxing I have started 2 more. Do what you love.
xox <><

It's back to nature. For us anyhow. More fresh veges, reading labels and focusing on what goes in  before it comes out, in one way or another. If it can be stored in a box for 6 months we don't want it.  Originally, I saw a post with a photo of a horse, it instantly made me smile. this is my version. 

Is there anyone who claims not to know the benefits of choosing a salad over a cheese burger? Choice. What we put into out bodies. Food and medicine.
 The choice should always be OUR own. 
 xox <><

If you think I’m over stretching it on this one think again.  

Do you use ANY of the mind altering substances? Every one of them is a Mind altering substance. FACT 

Research Sugar, introduced as a drug. Until someone decided it was candy... $.  
Cannabis is a plant, use in the past fro everything from Cholic to a tooth ache, and until someone decided it was a Dangerous DRUG it was a HERB.

Never mind any of that.., ALL of the substances on the left have been attributed to death. Sugar - again - a major factor in obesity, diabetes and more.  Alcohol.. abuse, physical hard to a body, impairment, poisoning, responsible for date rape, murder and “ I was drunk...”  and more. 

SO PLEASE,  stop telling me, I am wrong.  Me and the other few hundred thousand (who admit to it) and counting that believe Cannabis is a better CHOICE. A Healthier choice.

ONE for using Cannabis as my medicine and also for all those that wish to use recreationally.  Compare the choices and statistics. 
THEN lets continue the conversation.  
While your at it you can read about Cannabis helps repair the brain. 

If you have never tried Cannabis, your opinion is invalid when you judge someone else while you hold that cup of coffee & donut and your evening with a cocktail or two...

Wow, this cartoon smacked me right in the head ;-) Awesome.
It started with a joke from my best bud Cathy.♥ 
I was stressed wondering what to draw for 4/20?! 
The universal day of 
Celebration for Cannabis!!! 
A Plant.
Grown from a seed.
Made by *GOD.
(*original patent holder)


Medical, Recreational, Hemp, Food, Fuel.. 
It's the day and I want to say THANK YOU!  
                                       I have said it so many times, I thank God daily for this Plant! 
Give us this Day our daily Bud...  <3 Wow. YES,   I read recently  how powerful that prayer is;  Give us this dayour daily bread,  -not thanks for yesterday, or make sure I have it tomorrow. Give us THIS day.  Focus on today.
.. and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us,
 and that                 ^ ^        ^  That simply put means  ^    ^  ^             :
                                               PEACE, PEOPLE!  
Religion aside... who can argue with those lines?  How else are we going to get ahead, clearly WAR is not the answer! 
Thank you Marvin, now in my head for the rest of the day.
People all around the world who suffer over a plant. A plant less toxic than many others,  proven helpful to ease pain, yet illegal and lives destroyed because of it.    
WTF?   O.M.God.  How disappointing.  
A PLANT.  While others  rape, kill, abuse, terrorize, suffer & starve needlessly... 
enough with the bullshit distraction. 
FOCUS on the REAL problems at hand. 

Rise Up people! Speak up! <3   Celebrate this Plant! Let it be a symbol of change.
It all starts with a SEED!!!  Life.

So.. Yes!
     Give us this Day our daily bud, 
       and thank you Lord  for it!
I do! Everyday! Keeping the Love of my life happy - How could I not give thanks?
Celebrate 4/20, Spread Peace and Love !!! 
- there are already enough assholes doing the opposite;-)


xox <><

Tomorrow is the BIG day!  Cannabis will be celebrated all over the world! What started as a time for a bunch of guys to meet to smoke some 'marijuana'  at 4:20 everyday , has turned into a world wide celebration! On April 20th - 4/20.. People all around the world unite and light up! AWESOME! 
At first I thought it was 'neat' but then to see it grow and share! People get together to share, hang out, talk, laugh, educate and stand up for something they believe in! 

Medicinal and recreational, the crimes against Humanity regarding this plant are shameful.  Every year it grows larger, parades, marches, sit -in's & MORE!  Think about it...  When else do they do this? Not enough times I'm afraid. We should have a world wide NO GMO day! Or  Celebrate the children day and stop abuse! 

I was asked to post a cartoon early at 7:00 p.m. my time - because it is April 20 on the other side of the world already! ;D  Yes, I will admit in my small mind,  I did not think of that at first!  How many realize the problems regarding cannabis are all around the world?  Some people even die because of it.  
I do! I have been educated! I plan on doing what ever I can to help educate others! 
If it is as simple as drawing a cartoon that will get some attention, create a curiosity...
Done!
I have another new toon to post tomorrow a.m. ;-) 
Have a great time all who plan on doing something special for 4/20!  Remember to do it 'peacefully' < something asscoiated with pot smokers, and I'm fine with that! 
Stand up for what you believe in! Why else are you here? 
xox <><

We watched an interesting doc. the other night, I was watching it and the guys joined me at some point. It was called: Food Matters     http://www.foodmatters.tv/
We watched it on netflix and it was awesome. 

We say In God we Trust, it's on every American $$$.
The USA president put his hand on the bible... is this all for show? Have ye so little faith? 
It says in the Bible,  fist page: 
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

I do not recall anywhere in the bible where it states that one person, country, organization can take out a patent on one of God's creations. Is it just me? But here it is, BEHOLD...
USA Patent on Cannabis:   http://www.google.com/patents/US6630507

W.T.F?  I also have watched several documentaries on companies like Monsanto trying to hold patent on plants in India- Until crops started to fail and EVEN MORE people started to starve and die & have since decided this is not a good thing.
 IF you don't believe in God - then substitute  in my drawing who ever you want! 
Imagine Mother nature, Buddha or your friendly family farmer!  What ever it takes for us to get it and help educate others before this continues to get out of complete control. 
Consider it the religion of all humanity - One Love
WHY would we let any ONE person, government, country - hold a patent to a plant! 
2 words should be popping into your mind...  
                                 WORLD HUNGER 
Yesterday I watched a Doc., it was  about beautiful Burma : 
They Call It Myanmar: Lifting the Curtain. < click  *Well worth the watch.  I was touched at the comment if they have 3 meals a day (and I'm not talking Popeye's chicken or Swiss Chalet) they consider themselves rich. Their children lucky if they can go to school for one year. ;-( Then it's off to work - job's I cannot imagine doing.  They are peaceful people with a great faith that have been neglected for far too long. They inspire. 
You should watch it and see what happens when we lose control.
WE lose control when we let others have it, and to have it over what is most important to every single being on this planet - nutrition/food- is incredibly frightening and quite stupid of us.  HOW many are we???  So this toon is about Cannabis and so much more- it is about every single plant and seed on this planet that we all MUST share.
I love plants as you can see below I have them on every window in my home , every room...  what's next? I'm afraid to think of the possibilities if they continue the direction they are going. 
Another few  great Documentaries to watch..

I was asked recently do draw for The WorldWide Cannabis Tribe - of which I am proud to say I am a member!  I loved drawing this cartoon for several reasons. I had complete freedom. The owner asked that I do what ever I wanted with the paragraph he provided. 
The Hemp leaf turned into hemp twine keeping us all connected. Medically, recreationally for religious reasons - what ever the reason,  Cannabis is widely used all around the world and I agree- not until we all stand up and ask, express & in some cases even demand the right to use this healing herb. 
This toon is now on it's way to Scotland! My toons travel more than I do! LOL 
I am honored to say the least that this toon will be displayed in another part of the world. Planting the seed of Cannabis education all around the world! 
I feel blessed! 
Now back to plastering my honey's prop for the front lawn! Then perhaps I can sneak in a drawing today or two! 
xox ☮❤☯

If vegetables could speak. 
This is a tricky toon.  In all honesty I have had this conversation recently. What if?  If you are having surgery anywhere I think at some point you ask- what if? I personally would want the plug pulled. I remember in college we watched "Who's Life is it Anyway?" With Richard Dryfus. Still an argument that continues today. People who do not want to continue life. People who are in agony every day and tired and CAN NOT be helped medically... a woman is fighting this now.  It is a difficult call but I feel it is her life and why not have the option to do it safely - she said she will do it regardless.  Should it not be an option?  Then  we have incredible people like Steven Hawkins  sets an example like no other-  We are blessed for him and his wonderful mind. He is only one of many that are dealt with situations that I can not even possibly imagine what their life must be like. No one can. UNLESS YOU LIVE IT.

 I know of an artist who blows my mind when I see his MOUTH painted art! 
In the movie Richard is an artist. Works with his hands and is paralyzed from the neck down.  IT is his life, he breaths art. I often think I'd go insane if I could not draw.  I guess you don't really think of these thing until you are in that situation.  If I was just going to lay there. Pull the plug.  

ANYWAY I don't now how my crazy brain thought of this cartoon, I was watching a monsanto Doc on PIGS!! Now it's pigs! That means no more bacon - or mass produced bacon.. Scary. Really! What will we be eating in the future! They said Agent orange was fine, Dr.s use to praise smoking tobacco after a long day.  I read an article watermelons were exploding from being a product of GMO. The GMO salmon are meaner and nastier!
Can you imagine the pigs!?   WE PUT this stuff in our bellies people! 
So before I published I realized this toon just might hurt some feelings. It is how I feel personally. Everyone should be able to make up their own mind, and  I was not thinking of human vegetables when drawing it really - I was thinking Tomatoes, Corn, Soy, Beans, Peas, Watermelons, Beets - EVERYTHING that grows-!  Say No to GMO.
xox <><
The Doc. if interested : patent for a pig ! 
http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/patent-for-a-pig/
Wow- who the F*&^ do they think they are they can patent one of God's creations and WHY do they THINK we will let them control our lives like that?
xox <>< 

Trees- leave them alone and they pop up everywhere! It is witnessing nature that calms me right down. When I read about plants - GMO's, patent, wiped out- lumber,  bugs etc... (sadly it can be a long list) I go out and see seeds that have sprouted fallen on an old tree stump, left alone - ta-da another tree! 
I look at all the beautiful nature around me and think Cannabis will never be wiped out as long as there are seeds to sow. 
Trust me THERE are seeds to sow.
As long as tress grow and HUMANITY leaves them alone they will continue to grow.  My backyard when we moved into our home was a big patch of SOD. Each tree we (my husband, Storm in his wagon, and our pets) dug out of a field that we knew would soon be a stretch of new homes. Most tress were no more than 2 feet high. I am PROUD to say we have trees all over our yard, front and back. They provide us with shade, privacy, food for the birds and entertainment now as they have become a leafy highway for our furry squirrely friends! It brings a sense of peace to see all the trees and even weeds that pop up everywhere! They won't be stopped! A bit of soil, rain and sunshine and they will grow to reach for the heavens!  There is HOPE.!!  Not just for Cannabis but for all trees & all seeds! Seeds should remain Free to all!  No one should be able to patent nature. 
God made it for all to use, enjoy and help ourselves, mentally and physically.

Of course many of my friends ask me about Cannabis and it amuses me to learn that they have no idea- they think of Cannabis as a plant - right -  that's about the extent of it. Many people do not realize the many different varieties that are  available and how many treat different symptoms.  Just like you can now get many different types of  tomatoes-  growers cross breed plants to get the different Cannabis blends. There are two main types of Medicinal Cannabis, Sativa and Indica as seen above. One fatter, wider leaves the other long and thin. They work like other medicines - how many of you have taken a cold medicine for the day and then a different one for the evening? SAME thing!  I use both at different times. I always have a Indica in the evening to help me sleep. Usually  coconut oil in my tea- very healthy way to drift off IMO.  Also after a long day my arthritis is at its limit and it helps me feel more comfortable as I fall asleep. 
When my twitch is constant and I need it to give me a break, I will also use indica to help me possibly meditate and even nap during the day- as a last resort when I start to feel exhausted.  In the morning I use a sativa - usually after I'm up and going and it is the twitch that 'reminds' me to medicate.  The sativa allows me to keep going - move past it - clean the house, do laundry or draw. I believe it helps most with depression.  It does not make the twitch go away - If it did I would probably smoke it all day - who wouldn't!? Many   believe Cannabis sounds too good to be true... Thank God it is that good. It allows millions to function daily. Knowing what I know now - it would be MY FIRST choice for pain control before I tried any chemical cocktail. Above is a drawing that I did for myself - I always forget the difference and now I wont, I hope I've helped someone else remember for the future - when it comes time for them to seek the medicine that best helps them.
Plant the seed of cannabis education today!  Show people,
Cannabis helps many for many reasons! <>< XOX

For everyone that embraces this plant - has educated themselves on this plant and all it's GOODness - medicinal, Hemp, Oil, Food, building material and MORE- That continue to fight for this plant and our rights as humans - It's time for a group hug! I know how frustrating it can be, feeling like your banging your head against a brick wall, wondering is anyone listening???
So today I thought,  let's take time for a group hug! Support each other, encourage and just celebrate the Plant! Thank each other!  I feel it in the air change is around the corner!!
But for just today- Enjoy Cannabis and all it does and for all of us, millions around the world.
NOW that is a GROUP HUG!!

If everyone that smoked it admitted to it.. 
If you smoke cannabis  recreationally or medicinally and don't take action to help promote legalization or even better Decriminalization they you don't deserve to smoke Cannabis. 
If you are not helping then you  ARE hurting.  Your worried what others will think, worried about losing your job, worried about losing your kids.  
FEAR is a powerful tool. 
All these thing we are all afraid of. If you believe are doing nothing wrong then why lie?
WHY? 
Why are we afraid to stand up for a PLANT, that eases pain and brings comfort and relaxation and (HELL YES) some fun and laughter from time to time. 
IF Alcohol is legal then we should be demanding Cannabis be made legal for all to use. 
No deaths from it EVER.  * YES I have to keep saying that - as it amazes me HOW many people I meet who just don't know that! 
How many deaths from Alcohol- you tell me.
ARE we not HUMANS - children of God ? All deserving a happy life?
We get one shot and I for one will not live my life in shame when I have nothing to be ashamed of.  Not for smoking, eating, vaporizing Cannabis. 
There are so many more dangerous things that are all legal - owning a boa constrictor, bungee jumping, ordering puffer fish at a restaurant, bath salts are legal to buy (the kind that Mess you up and eat your dog bath salts) so WHY? IT's ludicrous! 
There are enough of us - all around the world.  Many who do NOT use Cannabis but still admit & understand it's value and importance to medicine and  LIFE in general. 
So just admit it and move on there are far worse crimes in this world.  
Perhaps you will educate someone in the process- 
I'm not saying go to your kids school and announce at show and tell - I am saying, enough !  Cannabis is a safer option than alcohol and if YOU do use it for medicine be  LOUD and Proud! This is how change will happen. 

* If you are a parent - YOUR children must always come first - If you burn and then burnout - you are not a good parent. Kids need positive examples. If you smoke and sit on the sofa all day - you ARE NOT a setting a GOOD example. EDUCATE your children and  teaching by example is one of the best ways to help your children make the best choices for them when they are old enough to decide to try cannabis themselves.
Time to WAKE up! Time to Stand UP!!! 
Before we are shut up...  then, we will no one to blame but ourselves.

Just one more way to plant the Seed of Cannabis Education! 

I Love Daisy's!  I'll give you a daisy a day dear... (remember that song?)  Even our dog is named Daisy and she is as pretty as a Daisy - HAPPY!  A Daisy is a happy Flower! Tall and strong - who has not =  "she loves me... she loves me not..."  with a Daisy at some point in their life?  So my bouquet of PEACE would definitely be Daisy's!  
We can't go wrong if we plant these seeds! LOVE, HOPE and COMPASSION. 
You can not help but grow GOODNESS when you plant such ideas in the minds and hearts of those you interact with.
So never mind Cannabis today (We'll be right back on track with that Monday morning!)
Plant some LOVIN'  NOW!  If only in your own mind and heart - it's a start!!!
