Am I me when Im High? Or am I me when Im straight?

I can be who they want me to be when Im straight... but am I really me? cause I feel like me when Im high, but I also feel like Im me when Im straight.
Maybe Im me but not really me, but just the me that they want to see. Still Im the me that wants to be free, and can't you see that while Im me I will never be free...
It's all such a puzzle to those that don't feel less than I do.. waste away in pain... never feel the same...
you know what I say, the ones that understand we force ourselves to keep the faith beneath the masters hand...

You are always you, just in different states of mind/conciousness.

the drugs just bring out things in you that you have no access to otherwise

Are you you when you're sleepy? Are you you when you're hungry? Are you you when you're in love? etc.
Drugs aren't the only things that change your brian chemistry.

lets say, hypothetically, that in some instances you weren't you. What or who would you be, then?

'there has to be somethign else something other to bring out the feeling that u are u., and so that u can feel really u, that outside world has to seemstrange , different, weird.... you old trickster. deep down in, you know the whole bit. Therefore what u want is a suprise.. so you have to let things get out of control, u have to feel lost and lonely to know u as u. u play the thing out . by inventing lusts lovesm fears terrors, annoying anxities. also u can imagine, its not really me its 'it' that runs the show. you are running the show! you are playing your own game'

That's so bizarre. The other night I'd smoked a few cones and had this insight into how my life is when I'm not stoned, and it seemed quite a profound level of insight, not just drug-induced oddness. I got to thinking whether I was viewing my life in a new light and noticed things I didn't when sober, or whether I just didn't notice them when sober because they were unimportant. It was certainly weird to see such a similar topic so soon after the event!

mulla nasr ruddin in the city [Re: Deviate]

it was the first time that the mullah had travelled so far from his home village... and such a large & busy city! when he arrived at the lodging place (much like a hostel) for single men in the city, he was afraid while that, while asleep, he would lose himself in the crowd of slumbering strangers, so he tied a string around his toe before he retired that night... now, a wag had observed this activity, and suspecting what was in the country bumpkin's mind, waited until mullah nasruddin was sound asleep, and then removed the string from the mullah's toe & tied it about his own...
and the next morning---
all awoke to the mullah shouting at the prankster: "i know indeed who you are -- but who, oh who, am I?"

We all have a choir of voices within us, striving for harmony.
We are never just one person.
