I found that concept very alarming for some time, that you could take shrooms, hear the universe, and then like, quit your job without really having a plan.
However, I've since met many people who have taken shrooms and none of them to my knowledge have found the infinite wellspring of courage needed to quit their jobs on a dime and live life on fully their own terms. Now days I worry if I tried shrooms I wouldn't find that wellspring of courage either.
