A few months ago I seriously considered punching my boss in the nose.
It is funny how I would be resting on the desk in my cubicle, and blankly zone out while staring at the laptop screen, daydreaming and planning on beating him up. While it was clear not everything was her fault, and she was just the bearer of terrible news, I still got annoyed. After sometime I was able to calm down & leave for the day, but I knew I had to make a change, but the frustration and rage can’t be allowed to build up, lest I explode. I decided to visit a trusted friend, Jim. He is the lead budtender at the local cannabis dispensary. The aim was to ask for some wisdom, then Jim recommended meditation & cannabis edibles, in equal measure. As usual, he was right. According to him, this is a holistic approach to self-care, and all one needed to do was smoke cannabis and meditate. Failing to meditate is equivalent to covering up the problem. I needed to enjoy the cannabis, relax, and then focus inwardly. This meant spending a few hours in self reflection white enjoying the gift of tranquility. It is obvious that finding inner peace isn’t easy,but cannabis made it a lot easier. After spending a few quiet hours deep in meditation, pausing only to smoke more cannabis, I automatically felt renewed & reinvigorated. Since then I smoke cannabis every day, and make sure to meditate every evening after work. This way I am able to release all the tension & stress before it builds up to toxic levels. Jim may be a budtender at the cannabis dispensary, but I treat him like a guru for all the great advice he gives.
