Here's some flowers for peace. One is a White Trillium, the official flower of Ontario, Canada, my birthplace. The second is the somewhat redundantly named Purple Violet, the official flower of New Brunswick, Canada, where my current home is.

I'm not sure what you're insinuating here, that there's something dopey about the flowers-for-peace idea? I'm guessing that's your point, and I get it, but don't you think it's too bad that we've been so conditioned to think war is the norm that we're so cynical about the prospect of a peaceful utopia?

I'd wager the idea of sharing flowers for peace comes across as kind of fruity to most of the forum members here, but sometimes it takes an acute change of direction (such as doing something outside your normal comfort zone, like sharing flowers) to come up with the best solution to a problem.

I'm not a coward. I'm not afraid to die for the things I believe in, but given the option I'd really rather not. I'm kinda addicted to this whole staying alive racket.

I don't want to be duped into believing the only way to get what I want or need is to constantly be involved in mortal conflict. That doesn't seem smart to me, and it doesn't seem brave at all. It seems to me that it'd take a lot more bravery to explore new, peaceful solutions to the world's problems as oppose to the proverbial mindlessness of trying to beat back whatever's coming at you with a stick.

not at all, I like the pictures of real flowers. In case it's not obvious, Crustys picture is of a cannabis 'flower' ... aka mary jane, wacky tabacky, etcetera etcetera

here's some chamomile for you, supposed to make a relaxing tea



edit: i noticed the original picture was a bit huge, here it is again cropped and downsized, sorry!

Whoops, my bad! Still, I think my albeit falsely-informed reaction demonstrates that you don't have to be a drugged-up hippy to believe in peace!

That depends on wherever you choose to do it, I think! I don't do drugs, and I can't think of a good reason why anyone else should, but it seems to me that the laws are somewhat out of proportion in Canada and the U.S.

It seems to me on a scale from least offensive to most, that the extremity of the punishment ought to go like this:
1) doing drugs
2) speeding
3) white collar crime
with drugs being the lightest sentence, and white collar crime being the heaviest.

But it seems to go the other way. Suppose your white collar crime was ripping off the insurance company you work for, so as a result, there's a shortage of money for people who get in a car accident, so their health suffers. Or if you speed, obviously you're putting other lives at risk, too. Obviously drugs can destroy communities, I'm just saying the degree to which drug offenders are prosecuted is out of proportion to those other offenders, considering their relative societal harm.

nothing like living in a country where poison is legal(alcohol), and it's okay to smoke tobacco even though it has a couple thousand more chemicals.

It's winter where I live and they aren't many flowers in the garden, there's some winter jasmine and a couple of daisies in flower on the lawn but not much. There again I suppose it won't be long before the snow drops and winter aconites come in to flower.
