This is an important and valid point.
I think alot of the close-mindedness on the topic of drug use is due to misunderstanding and misinformation. I mean, in reality, there are other reasons drugs are used besides just to get high".
For one, there are certain types of psychoactive drugs - mainly psychedelics - that actually expand the consciousness
and allow you to see things from a different perspective. I especially see nothing wrong with using drugs such as LSD and psilocybin ("shrooms") as a way to expand on one's mind and views of certain aspects of life.
Furthermore, in the dealings of close-mindedness, it is
senseless to draw conclusions about drug use simply based on biased second-hand information. How can someone make a decision not to do something when they've never tried it? Terence McKenna - one of the pioneers of psychedelic substance experience - made the statement: "I consider going to the grave without having ever had a psychedelic experience like going to the grave having never had sex". The same goes for non-psychedelic drugs as well.
I agree alot with your thoughts about this topic. It is naive and closeminded to decide not to at least experiment with drugs based on what has been preached about them, ya know?

Honey, I am anything but boring.
All I drink is water.
I am high on life.
I rode a swing yesterday.
I walked the beach for 2 hours today.
I made a new friend today.
I smiled at everyone I saw today.
I cyber-flirted today.
My life is good, not boring.

No people who don't drink at every party they attend and don't do drugs, or even try one are not boring people. They are the ones who are truly alive.
