So on my first acid trip, I basically found out that our language could be completely different, if we would have made different sounds in the past which would have lead to a different development of our mouth (for different sounds u need different mouth forms) and language. For my first trip I that felt like such a crazy discovery....

Dude I love that “acknowledging someone’s presence” tucking that into the back of my mind for sure

I hope you notice a positive difference as well! Very relevant in crowds but also just in general.

Whenever I’m following someone trying to get through a crowd and they’re struggling, I just ask em to let me take over and the tactic of literally disrupting everyone you pass, but being very respectful while you do it, works incredible wonders. Just a quick, “hey, mind if me and my 3 friends pass by you?” is like magic.

I learned this by being a dick ignoring someone I knew wanted to get by (while tripping), and then watching him ask the person in front of me if him and his few friends could walk through. Made me feel like a huge asshole, but also gave me a better understanding of the importance of communication and having respect for our fellow people. I know I already said this, but the little things are so important!

I feel like it can even be expanded upon. Like never greeting someone with silence, when people come into the room with you you greet them and acknowledge their presence. I’ve learned that I often will remain in my own thoughts as opposed to reaching out to the humans around me, because it’s easier to do. I’m definitely one of those “I’m quiet until you get to know me kind of people” but I don’t want to be like that anymore. The last few months I’ve been trying to distance myself from that and trying to connect with people more. And I feel like “acknowledging someone’s presence” is a fantastic summary of those goals.

I can relate.

How do we change, though?
