I dunno about walking around brain-dead instead of being cognizant of my surroundings and problems. Sometimes it seems simpler and better but I don't want to live in an illusion. I had similar drugs for my tourettes when I was younger. All they did was take away energy and make you kinda drugged up. I finally figured they aren't really working, I still have them, my body builds a resistant to the drug, and I'm the one fighting them not the drug anyway so I got off the pills period (most were for people having seizure, etc). I still remember walking down the hall in school and it seemed like I was so far away from my eyes and head, I was just looking out of someone elses body. Wasn't the best feeling or days.
I just would have felt that if Drugs don't do what their supposed to do, then it's a waste of time. I'm not overly wild about how people will tell you there's a pill for just about everything - and even if medicine does advance so that pain can be relieved through DNA treatment, there maybe an industry which will stop it before it gets to that in other to save the pill-popping industry. I feel terrible just thinking that the mecidine industry would do that - when it should be in their best interest to keep people living.
With all machines in the world designed to keep people alive - when it's clear their time is up, I just don't understand that. People are get totally emotional and want to keep the person alive - even when the machine is only keeping them alive. Death is something everyone has to live with - it's as significant as living, though I feel uneasy when people want to keep their love ones suffering in situations when it's clear their time as come! I feel sorry for those people who decide to go down that path, but I suppose that Hospitals can also be guilty of that as well - I'm not sure.
But on a different note - I've had Goats Cheese, Colby (which is like a smooth Cheddar), Cheddar, Blue Cheese, Sliced Cheese & some other cheeses which names escapes me! :-D I have Colby regularly which I reckon is a nice Tasty cheese, though I used to get some Goats Cheese from a Farmers Market - which was also quite interesting. Everytime I had it, it would taste different though, but it's always had an interesting about it.
