Is it a reality…a hope…or a promise?
Have you been there once for a visit? And then come back, to the land of falling down, shaking, quaking and blackouts.
We all know, the only thing that remains the same is change. Everything is in a state of flux. Drugs, science, our bodies, our brains. From that you can choose hopelessness. Or hope…

It appears to be a standing battle between politics and science. The legality requires proof of medical marijuana’s effectiveness. Reports of success are anecdotal. Yet there are no funds for clinical trials and it remains on a back burner for further NIH funding and research. (Wow. What a surprise!)
