Serving others and marijuana

[kristina]

Obviously if you are smoking/ingesting cannabis 24/7, there is going to be some obvious blowback. If you're smoking before bed though, I don't really see the harm in it. Although I do acknowledge that people don't typically get high for others, they tend to get high for themselves. I can't even think of a scenario in which someone would get high for another person. So, to me, it's clear that this sort of thing is a STS oriented action.

This is not an STS sort of scenario at all. Perhaps it could be a little self centered but only the ingestor knows that, right?
Actually, I think of a person wanting to stay high every day at best would make them neutral depending on the way the drug made them feel. Some people feel very motivated on this drug while others feel lethargic. So, we have that. To measure something STS or STO we would actually have to look at the heart of another human being which we really cannot do. Although, there are times where the actions of another is blantantly so. Like for instance, enslaving others and manipulating them such as our governments or Big Pharma. This could be labeled STS. Then to have another human being who tries to assist others while balancing that with the love of itself. We could see this as STO. However, things get muddled when we are nit picking actions such as the act of selfishness. It could be a result of confusion or a result of some type of trauma where the person was abused or they are learning what selfishness means to them in this lifetime. This is where the line of judging one another as STS and STO gets muddled. The best that I find is to allow the other human being to be as he or she is and if you cannot, then search the interior of yourself and ask why does it bother you or make you question their actions. The answer will come if the desire to understand is there.
Of course this is based upon my own experience when I had similar questions as this.
