This would be a weird surreal sort of way to experience life. Makes me think of the sixties drug era. Have you read The Celestine Prophecy? A spectacularly badly written book, but it talks about vibrations. Apparently the reason people feel so elated and on such a high when they feel love is because love makes us vibrate at exactly the same wavelength as the earth, so when we're feeling love we're exactly in tune. Makes a sort of sense I guess.
Funny you mention the sixties drug thing, he was a constant supporter of legalizing drugs, naturally occurring ones at any rate,magic mushrooms, grass etc, he felt they expanded our minds and gave us the ability to see beyond the constraints of normal human existence.
I have heard of The Celestine Prophecy, but I haven't read it I must admit.
I like the whole vibration premise though, it makes sense , sort of as you say
mmm, legalising drugs ... there are fors and againsts to that argument. I'm not sure what is best in the end. While legalising it does make it easier to control, and I don't think it should be a 'criminal' (maybe a misdemeanour or somesuch?) offence, still, it's definitely harmful in the long term and you certainly wouldn't want people going to work stoned, or young kids using it willy nilly.
I've heard a lot of artists say it's helpful, or even essential, for creativity, but personally I've never found it necessary. I've written things when I was drunk. Read it next morning ... absolute gibberish, lol.
I do think though, that if drugs like marijuana are illegal then alcohol should be too. I've seen far worse personal and social consequences from drinking than I ever have from smoking pot.
speaking of drugs, I just read online that Heath Ledger, that young Australian actor, was found dead this morning from a suspected drug overdose in a New York apartment.

Plus pot doesn't usually lead to violence, although, the strength of it these days can lead to psychosis compared to the days when I used to smoke it.
But if its grown naturally, its not as strong.
Anything I have written when I'm drunk has been less than stunning lol.
mm, yep. totally agree.
although I haven't read anything you've written when drunk as far as I'm aware, lol
Trust me, it becomes drivel and very VERY self indulgent
And I'm prone enough to that sober *laughing*

Yeah, I read that, what a waste, he was always a bit twitchy though, always came across as fragile.
28, just a boy *sighs*
it's so final. there's no coming back for a second bow after that. that's it.
I always think, what if the best thing you could ever possibly imagine had been about to happen tomorrow???
