hey kids,

raves are awesome. the scene is amazing... and the drugs make it different. oh yeah i love them... but there are problems with these drugs.

i see many many people whose lives are essentially debunked from normality through the (not always inappropriate) use of drugs. these are people who cannot socialize, cannot form relationships, cannot work, who have no ability to interpret reality, who cannot live. the use of drugs is more than half the reason for this.

yes you may say that they were going to have a hard time anyway but if you add to this the use of illicit drugs then you have a potent combination for achieving a very early end to life.

drugs for me at these parties are an easy way to enjoy life. in fact i would say they help me (without being neccessary) appreciate life in its fathomless beauty.

my message is care with their use. dont become a victim. it happens not to a few but to many. use them with the awareness that psychiatric hospitals and wards are full of people who abuse these drugs. many not through their own choice. often the drugs have removed the ability to make a choice. be aware that the dangers with their use are not insignificant and that most do not (can not) consider the risks.

you dont need drugs... for a high. music is more than enough. (ie technically you have these drugs in your head already and by using music you can get your natural high with out the risk of artifiially fucking your very delicate and essential organ - your brain).

take care and safe harmonising with others where people congregate for various reasons (including music and people).

c u there, jc
