Pass the torch...

Passing the torch... Recently when I became legal to use cannabis  I guess in fact it was indeed my son who was passing me the torch. Pun intended.  Being ill and not knowing what is causing it had me questioning my medications - especially as I kept getting worse, yet I know how Cannabis helped Storm and still my own mind did not quite click - why? Because I have grown up in a generation  where I have been passed the torch of prescribed drugs. I also have a mouth full of mercury - because they thought that was a good idea too when we were kids.  The traditions of ours before us. Habits?  NOT always are good traditions passed down. Some habits/traditions should be left in the past. Racism belongs in the past. 
Celebrating every event with alcohol is a tradition in many families - that belongs in the past! Things that are past down from our parents for generations - just because?  We need to learn that NOT all of them are good. Someone commented on a post and I thought- he is so right !- Dr.s -We were raised watching television shows that glorify them - we take what ever they say as the 'Word'. We trust them, the past few days you can not pick up a paper without reading about many Dr.s who were lied to by the makers of Oxycodone - They told Dr.s that is was less addictive than other medications. The makers LIED, now people are dying, overdosing and on a rush to stock up before they make the pills into the new - gel type - that is not as easily snortable ! WTF? There is a SERIOUS abuse problem with these drugs. The "NEW & IMPROVED OXYNEO" pill will be just as bad:  http://winnipeg.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20120301/oxycontin-oxycodone-replacement-health-120301/20120301/?hub=WinnipegHome    Chances are my son would have been taking them if not for his Cannabis.  It is time we moved past - traditions, habits even opinions or values that are outdated.  Educate ourselves - learn to trust our gut. 
If you must "pass the torch" of something .. let it be of good things. Knowledge - a desire for reading, peace, kindness, courage, HOPE. xox <><
