Blessed be the herb Mother Nature has gifted to us. In the worlds where God exists, blessed be the herb that God has provided to us.
May it prosper, may we prosper, may the inhabitants of the Earth indulge in it. No other way may we embrace our inner beings.
May we connect with our supernatural warriors and the rebellious voices that compell us to think and act. For the herb is only of this world.
May we cast aside our violence and rules. May the humans of the Earth unite under peace and the harmony and insight the herb provides.
May we all share the bond; old and young, Muslim and Athiest, rich and poor, priest and murderer. May we puff the same blunt and pack the same bowl.
May we participate in conversations deeper than society permits. May we not disdain the herb for its harmonious power, for it threatens the disastrous world we have created.
May we allow the herb to empower, relieve, and cure what is weak and calm what is violent and harsh. We exist together, therefore we must love and hurt together.
Ode to the herb that has suggested friendship in a world of hate and life in a society of death. Let us embrace its power and bring peace to mankind.

Tragedy
A common drive for human beings is religion. In times of tragedy, it is common to justify the circumstances with the idea that 'God did this for a reason.' Well there is no reason God would create the tragedy. God did not create it. In fact, there is no God.
Humans have the tendency to seek explanation for everything. Tragedy occurs only in the minds of humans. These tragedies are only caused by human error, whether it is the victim's or another's. Humans fail to understand that life moves on; they say the words but do not embrace the concept fully.
There is no deep reasoning behind tragic situations. There is no plan in place and no lesson meant to be learned. In the search for something greater, humans blind themselves from the simple reality that things just happen. Balance is always achieved in nature. Some die so that others can be born.
Humans fight nature with all of their power with no gain to show for it. Humans are the only animals to reject living in harmony with nature. Purifying forrest fires are put out. Chemical infested life killing cement is laid over the grass and dirt that provides homes and food for many species.
A tragedy happens simply because events led up to it happening. Victims are merely victims and are not specially chosen by a supernatural force to return to the sky. Peace can be found in the logical knowledge of why and what occurred. The acceptance that life is just another life in the universe can set one free.
