I went to a party held by some devotees of a spiritual path, I was surprised that they were all sitting around smoking spliffs and getting into drink too. I was even more surprised when one of the kids came and sat on my head. It was hard for the stoned party goers to realise how much the kids needed a bit of attention and parenting, as their philosphy was live and let live. Mmmm, by the way, did I mention it was the kid's birthday party?
