If you have spent your life dedicated and living the traditional ways of the native culture of the Hispanic country or the Native American tribe of your ancestral heritage then you’re right on target. But if that were the situation, you wouldn’t be posting this question would you? To pick and choose from a list of traditional rituals until you find something that strikes your interests and then attempt to justify acting out this ritual by leaning on a traditional background that you don’t have would be quite hypocritical.
Do like most mature young adults would do when spurred to more deeply investigate their curiosities.
Organize an adventure, get a small group together consisting of people with similar curiosities and head to southern Mexico for spring break. Score on some peyote, find your own in the wild or BYOP and then locate the nearest, coolest jungle environment the area has to offer and trip your butts off while watching the monkeys swinging from the trees. In short, do what you’re gonna do and leave mom and dad the hell-outta it. Quit torturing them with your silly whims. They have gotten you this far through life, so they must doing their job. You’re a young adult that is soon to be outta their nest.
Save these thoughts and desires, jot them down if you must and at a later date (*like when your out on your own and at least semi-self supportive) review them, if they still interest you, go for it.
*RE: Later Date/Semi Self-Supportive
As we mature from child/young-adult/adult, we build our own support system….or at least we’re suppose to.
Act’s mentioned by yourself and I in the above post can result in unanticipated fall-out, aka collateral damages.
Before you have the right to knowingly act on such desires you have to have your own support system in place.
Before tripping on peyote or heading off to a foreign land with the intent of tripping on peyote, a responsible person should first have:
A. Studied up on the subject to the point of having a above average knowledge of what they are getting into.
B.Suitable Medical Insurance just incase you find yourself in a Mexican jungle saying something to the order or “Dude, Idunno what that was but it wasn’t peyote, I’m feeling weird and my lips are turning an odd shade of green”.
C.Bank Account preferably one that isn’t dependant on next weeks paycheck to have a positive balance.
D.Somebody To Call Upon other than mom or dad that would be capable and willing to help you in your **time of special need.
**RE: Time of Special Need/ Somebody to Call Upon
This can and should consist of both a responsible friendship and professional base of individuals that are your very own personal contacts.( friends friends don’t count here) These individuals should include, but not be limited to a friend that would be willing and able to care for you if you were to find that peyote, or what you first thought was peyote doesn’t agree with your system. You know somebody that would house you, feed you and wipe your butt while you spend a couple months in a coma. For professionals, you should know a good attorney that has a proven track record of dealing with substance abuse convictions in and out of the country. Line C above applies here, be ready and able to afford such services. Inquire, ask questions, and be responsible.....
If the above criteria can be met, party on bud, in my book you would be considered a somewhat responsible adult with full rights to do what ever turns your crank…..
Until then, try being cool where mom and dad are concerned, your actions and even your comments affect them you know. You have been their little project for a lot of years, show a little more respect for there efforts. Think of doing something wild like getting a standard issue "good boy" haircut for your graduation photos. It could be like a prize or a gift to them from you, something they might hold onto as representation of the efforts, pain and agony they have been through while raising your lame butt.
Have a great Thanksgiving!!
I don't feel any less fulfilled about not performing any rites. I'm happy I've made it this far
