This Is My Journey In Knowing About Herbal Incense

Ever since I was young, I was already aware about drugs and narcotics. No, it is not because my parents are drug addicts or that I was already using it at such age. The reason behind this is that I was born smart. Whatever adults would say to me, I could easily understand it. When I was young, mom would preach me about drug use why I shouldn’t use them. She would even say that using drugs is a bad if I continue to use it, more bad things would happen to me.

During highschool, everything she told me went down the drain. Those times I met someone who happens to be a user or smoker of weed, a.k.a. marijuana. Yes, we got to hang out and became good friends. At the beginning, I was never aware that my friends uses weed. I was greatly surprised to see him behind the restroom smoking something that wasn’t a cigarette. When asked what was it, the answer he gave me was weed. What he said back then surprised me. After hearing what he said, I suddenly found out that I was blurting what my mom would use to say about drug use. All I have said have fallen to deaf ears. After browsing the internet if found a website about what he said the www.herbalincenovelty.com : herbal incense.

Even with the so called dark secret he has, that didn’t stop me from being friends with him. Slowly but surely, my curiosity grew every time my friends smokes one and nothing bad seems to happen to me. After many convincing, I was able to muster enough courage to try it. Yes, the thing I did may have been bad, but I never regretted it. It is because that experience is something that cannot be explained. Ever since then, I became a user myself. Our friendship only lasted during highschool, and it the only contact I had with him was just a few calls. For me to enter university and get a degree, my family and I had to move to a different place.

Even in college I still smoke weed. There’s always an end for everything, and that was when the police finally nabbed me when they found out that I have weed in my possession while driving a car and that cost me a year in prison. That experience was a huge blow not just to me but also to my parents. After one year of suffering behind bars, I was set for a new life, but before I exited that place, a guard who have become my friend inside prison told me that it is still possible to get high by using herbal incenses and not weed. I was surprised about what he said, but decided to think about it later.

Days after I left prison, I decided to make a research about these so called incense. Nowadays, if I have a knack to get high, I would just let these incenses burn, without worrying that the police will barge in through my door and put me back into prison.
