You risked your life, but what else have you ever risked? Have you risked disapproval? Have you ever risked economic security? Have you ever risked a belief? I see nothing particularly courageous about risking one's life. So you lose it, you go to your hero's heaven and everything is milk and honey 'til the end of time. Right? You get your reward and suffer no earthly consequences. That's not courage. Real courage is risking something that might force you to rethink your thoughts and suffer change and stretch consciousness. Real courage is risking one's clichés.

Amen! Terrence McKenna opened my eyes with his book, Food of the Gods, back in 2002. An amazing contributor to the collective consciousness, and an intelligent model for psilonauts everywhere.

To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour.
This to me describes LSD.
Not even lying, the first time I took LSD i was talking with a friend about how we take things for granted, but on acid you could find infinite pleasure in a grain of sand.... now i come across this poem and yeah.

All from Theodore Roosevelt:
A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad.
Believe you can and you're halfway there.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.
The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything.

People who comprehend a thing to its very depths rarely stay faithful to it forever. For they have brought its depths into the light of day: and in the depths there is always much that is unpleasant to see. - Nietzsche.
Icelander this reminds me of your "Don't Do It" thread.
And then another of his
There is not enough love and goodness in the world for us to be permitted to give any of it away to imaginary things.

"The principle itself of dogmatic religion, dogmatic morality, dogmatic philosophy, is what requires to be rooted out; not any particular manifestation of that principle. The very corner-stone of an education intended to form great minds, must be the recognition of the principle, that the object is to call forth the greatest possible quantity of intellectual power, and to inspire the intensest love of truth: and this without a particle of regard to the results to which the exercise of that power may lead, even though it should conduct the pupil to opinions diametrically opposite to those of his teachers. We say this, not because we think opinions unimportant, but because of the immense importance which we attach to them; for in proportion to the degree of intellectual power and love of truth which we succeed in creating, is the certainty that (whatever may happen in any one particular instance) in the aggregate of instances true opinions will be the result; and intellectual power and practical love of truth are alike impossible where the reasoner is shown his conclusions, and informed beforehand that he is expected to arrive at them.

Quote:
TrippyHippie74 said: People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost being and reality, so we can actually feel the rapture of being alive

If you think you are beaten, you are; If you think you dare not, you don't; If you'd like to win, but you think you can't, Its almost a cinch you won't; If you think you'll lose, you've lost; For out in the world you'll find Success begins with a fellow's will; It's all in the state of mind.
