Describing/imagining being high when you're sober. (reddthat.com)

Do you feel like it's possible to accurately imagine or even describe what it's like to be high when you aren't? Every single time I get high, the experience always sort of, surprises(?) me, as being so drastically different from what I might have anticipated. It's always such a paradigm shift in how I experience my Self and my place in the "universe." (Currently at a 5.)

Wow, that's the best description of the connections thing I've heard! Well put

I think humans are probably one of the best, if not the best, creature on Earth when it comes to pattern recognition. That and endurance running are probably our two greatest strengths over everything else on the planet. Pattern recognition has definitely been an asset for us, but it can be brought to an extreme when we start getting overwhelmed by a host of connections that don’t really exist or maybe aren’t significant.
