A Personal

Gonna tell you a quick story; not for any other reason than bc it’s true and bc people are suffering and maybe sharing some perspective helps.

I’m a balls-to-the-wall guy; when I do something, I do it wholly and passionately. “In for a dime, in for a lifetime.”

The few ppl I’ve let thru my online / arms-length persona and past the brave face I've practiced for yrs know I’m a complicated man. My past has shaped me as it has us all; broken home, 9/11, too many lost friends and lotsa self-introspection. As I said, we all have a story.

Was dark / damp / damn close to tapping out.

^ true story rt there

Then Covid hit / #BLM arrived / the elections happened; was
a perfect storm for cannabis / lifeline for the industry, and perhaps more.

Point is: I know it’s dark for many, as it’s been for us all at times But if U keep at it, you might just find that you were early, is all.

IDK why I chose to share this tonight. It's def not about how cannabis traded this wk, altho it traded quite well. It's more about having the courage / faith to take another step when you can't see what's in front of you; and doing it for all the right reasons. Anyway, /end

I'm totally gonna wake up tomorrow, look at my phone and say, "holy f*ck you actually tweeted that?"
