I enjoyed reading your account of your personal change!!
I tend to dislike people that have a thing against marijuana, not because of the thing itself, but because those people tend to be pretty much conservative, right wing minds. Something I dislike.
I smoke just maybe once a month nowadays, but I find it fun to do it, when I do it. Its not so available where I live, otherwise I would smoke probably once or twice a week. For me, marijuana, or alcohol, are drugs just like chocolate. A bit indulgence is good, consumption should be spaced in small doses, excesses are not so desirable.
Marijuana is very good to have visions and insights. Also to get more inspiration. Not so good to remember things, lol. Not good if you need to stay motivated and focused in your daily life. Good is you want to chill out and relax excessive emotions. Good for social interaction. Not so good for sexual encounters. Not so good for meditation and yoga. But good for music and other creative endeavours. Not good if you are prone to anxiety. But its a good pain killer. And of course, its very good for a good long laught.
Ahh, it should be legal. It is just a plant with an interesting impact in our mind and energetic body.

I grew up in a religious home, so before 17-18 I stayed away from nearly everything - booze and drugs. I can safely say that Marijuana completely turned my worldview around; before I started smoking, I was a capitalistic, republican-leaning "future business leader" ready to take my share of the pie.
Smoking opened up a world that it seemed my higher self had been calling upon for a very long time. My personality at that point was very accessible; I was extremely social and a bit of a 'class clown' that craved attention from people. Marijuana allowed me to see how I was allowing culture and society shape who I was becoming. I was following all the preached 'paths to glory' - business school, happy hours, etc. What I had never thought about was what my heart wanted rather than my brain; Marijuana put that into focus for myself.
@Azrael - I just made my way through a period much like what you describe with the anxiety and such around not smoking. Having a baby cured me, but I don't know if that's the most responsible solution for everyone...
Marijuana is definitely a great social equalizer for those with nervous issues. What is really the greater sin? Smoking a little to cut the edge or popping Xantacs and having an extra couple glasses of wine instead? Just as we are all one, each of our paths are our own. We must remember to thank each other for our service.
