Melissa Modolo "Magic Mushrooms"

I have found that the experience of magic mushrooms is a very strange thing to think about. What is it exactly that they show you that causes such an understanding of the world? There's no doubt that they give you insight into some complete other realm, but how? And more importantly, why do we not feel that same connection every day, seeing as the feeling comes from our minds and not from the drug that frees it? It's been a while since I've eaten them, but I can never ever forget the experiences I have had with them. There is some love that I cannot normally feel towards all other people. This includes the people I normally avoid. The way I see it, we are all connected as human beings and as part of life on earth, but we do not feel this connection daily. So many times you feel completely alone in the world even though there are still plenty of people who care about you. It is as if there is some part of our mind that experiences love and compassion that we do not normally access but when psylocibin is introduced to our bodies, we are able to reach far into this part of our minds and feel this connection. I feel that so many people in the world today never get to experience that feeling of connectedness. They never look at the other organisms in the world and feel as one with them. People are so influenced by tv and by their own closed minds and lives that they forget where they came from and they forget that they are nobody without their relationships with every living thing they encounter. People don't ever open up to what is beyond the doors they have closed on themselves. Like I said, I can never forget the feelings I have felt and it heavily influences my everyday life. I can not count myself as having lived a day if I do not interact with other organisms whether they be people or the trees I love to walk through. Why do other people not crave this same connection? This sameness we share with every being that lives. I wish I could show this other side of the world to people but unfortunately, most will never be open to the idea. I feel like if everyone could share their life with all things, this world would be such a better place. If people would notice the birds and breathe the fresh air every day, they could not possibly feel the hatred that is so often displayed.
