Marijuana

Marijuana is currently legal in 15 states. The legalization of marijuana is a very serious issue. They have legalized marijuana to use a prescription for cancer patients who are under chemo-therapy. In my opinion, marijuana should not be legalized. There are probably other ways to help the side effects of chemo-therapy other than marijuana. I think it is just another way for our government and insurance company to make money the in the time of recession. The government wants us to spend money so they figured that they legalize marijuana which is being sold more that cigarettes. Now days, many people smoke “weed” more that cigarettes and some just simply smoke weed. I know many people who smoke marijuana on regular bases and always offer me to smoke with them and I always refuse. To smoke pot does not make you look “cool “but it just effects your body. I don’t understand why weed is legalized in some states, and I really think that they should get find another alternate for treatment other then weed.

A long wait

It was a cold winter evening of 1861, mother was setting up the table for dinner. while, i was waiting, I started to look out the window watching soft white snow fall on the ground and the naked winter trees. The street was silent that you can hear the wind whistle and blow the snow from one end to the other. Every evening, for the last tewleve months,I watched this scene as my mother prepared dinner. every night I would sit and look out the window with the hope that my father might come home tonight. Days past, months past, and each day i wondered if he would make it back alive.
