IMO.. A good trip stays with you then rest of your life. A permanently altered state of mind, for those that have the cognitive ability to chase that rabbit down the hole hard.
It's an experience of coming of age. Find out where you fit in the order of things.
Some jerk off in the mud. Some don't.
LSD at Dead shows in the mid 80s was pretty good. I like the natural aspect of shrooms, but it's so rough. (Pucking and all) ( car analogy a good one.. ) I suppose shrooms good as a meditative aid. (Will likely do shrooms again with the kids one day soon.)
I haven't tripped LSD since the 80's.. I got what I needed. "What a long strange trip it's been..." indeed.
