A society is a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterised by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification or dominance patterns in subgroups

A sober perspective on why self propelled highs(as opposed to drugs) can (also) help one attain a more elevated sense of being.Especially when out partying and at festivals.
The idea was powered by my recent attendance of an Indian music festival - a huge number of attendees were only there to do drugs,apparently to escape the stresses of modern life. My sober self was immensely bored and deflated as I was out of sync with these on/off people.
As someone who has attended a few legendary festivals sober(burning man included) and experienced legitimate highs, I might have my two cents to share. Hopefully it will make people laugh and reflect.
an open mind
Because I club consciously
