Spend time with the people most important to you, and do the things in life you truly aspire to do, because it can all be taken from you in the blink of an eye.

society dictates thats a man dressed in worn clothes thats have been worked in is a beggar and worth less than the idea's he holds. thus making his believes and ideas nothing more than thoughts on paper.
example i could walk into a bank dressed in lounge pants and a worn thermal that has been worked in, and tell them i am a horticulturalist. and because i have nothing more than cash and no portfolio im more likely to be looked at as a common beggar than a man with a dream. they also mandate that a man without any ties to the current education system is a fool.

credentials mean everything, works mean none.

it is not up to society as a hole to determine if a man is isnt what he is by this appearance but by his works shall he be judged

our only objective in life is to survive and reproduce. Maybe grow a few marijuana plants while I'm at it.

Like Brick Top, I defer to Jeremy Bentham and John Stewart Mill, both advancers of Utilitarianism.

1) March to the beat of your own drum and distance thyself from the ignorance of the sheeple masses
2) Maximize your own happiness to the utmost extent possible (Joie de Vivre (Joy of Living) / If it feels good, DO IT!)
3) Laissez les Bons Temps Rouler

Being that herbal medicine has the effect of increasing personal happiness by reducing pain and increasing innumerable pleasurable experiences/sensations, the summation of my philosophy would be:

Smoke a bowl and enjoy life!

I also like Machiavelli in The Prince: A prince cannot observe all those things for which men are esteemed, often forced to act contrary to Faith, Friendship, Humanity, and Religion. But a prince ought to take care that he never lets anything slip from his lips that is not replete with the above-named five qualities, that he may appear to those who see and hear him altogether Merciful, Faithful, Humane, Upright, and Religious.

I think Machiavellian principles should be applied to your life in measured doses, just for the sake of reducing your exposure to the above-named Sheeple Masses. Just my two cents.
