this is gonna be random...
so, ive been offered coke *the drug not the drink* a whole lot lately. the reason i pass is usually because i'm too drunk to want anything else in my body and the reoccuring excuse of 'i've never done it before' and the minute anyone hears that out of my mouth, they won't let me.
i honestly dont care what people do recreationally, that's your body and your life and i'm not going to tell you what to do. i've def. had nights where i wanted to and if you know me, i wouldn't use the excuse of "drugs are bad" for anything.
but i realized something this morning during my cleaing rampage...one of the biggest reasons why i feel i shouldn't isn't because it's a drug and drugs are bad etc. but more so because of my interest in south american politics. i was talking to victoria once and she explained the situation to me, farmers in colombia are paid more to grow the cocoa plant than to grow produce etc. so a farmer who needs to support his family is inclined to do so. it's basic supply and demand and until the colombian government straightens itself out, and until there is less of a demand for coke, it'll continue to be like this.
so when i say i shouldn't, i'm not really talking about how i shouldn't because of how it'll affect my body etc. it's more so because i'd feel like a hypocrite.
that's all.
