Does there need to be more of a purpose than simple enjoyment?

To change your state & thus change your mode of experiencing reality. The only "harm" it may do is to your lungs (smoke), which is why I prefer to eat it. I don't think there is a "should" about it, unless it's "you should smoke weed if you want to change your state & thus your mode of experiencing reality."

The act is sufficient in and of itself. It needs nothing. It assists you in understanding being rather than doing.

Where do you guys get weed in Hawaii? Is it grown on the islands? Is Hawaiian weed pretty dank?

Weed helps relieve stress and increases creativity and interest in things you enjoy.
Weed hinders my motivation while sometimes making my consciousness cloudy.
Someone should smoke to experience a different state of consciousness , to have fun, and to force themselves to not take life and themselves too seriously.

Where do we get it? I can't answer that question. Not at The Shroomery.
Is it grown on the islands? Yes. Indoors and out.
Is it pretty dank? The dank stuff is. The crappy stuff isn't. Like anywhere else it depends on your connections.

I used to live in Hawai'i. You on O'ahu?? The weed out there is absurdly good.
I smoked every day when I lived there. I did it mostly to feel good, to escape my anxiety at being in a new place where I didn't know anyone. It ended up turning into a bad habit and I had many paranoid/depressed/anxious days and nights while there. I would advise against using weed to hide from life's dramas.
Now I smoke weed just to shake up my calcified everyday consciousness, or just because it's around. Can't say it's beneficial, can't say it's harmful since I do it so rarely. You should smoke weed if you've become a super self-important jerk; but you shouldn't smoke weed if you're a hyper-tense ball of angst...It's a fine line. I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about.
-------------------- “Strengthened by contemplation and study, I will not fear my passions like a coward. My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

Haha, I didn't mean where exactly do you get it as in from Jimbo at 123 South Main Street. I meant is it all grown domestically, which you answered for me.
I would think for such a small area of land, people that did grow would concentrate on growing and selling only good weed, but maybe there's bigger operations there than I'm thinking.

Yeah, it is better than average... but it doesn't matter where you live nowadays... every town has a mad scientist or two with a grow closet full of 'A' quality weed.
That said, the growers here seem to take it pretty seriously.

Nothing quite like desert weed. Only need one plant for personal(ism) use.
Try not to be envious!
