>Before the trip I was a hyper-logical person. I was an atheist that didn't believe in greater powers or anything large and mysterious in the universe.

That's the best part of psychedelics, realizing that we don't know anything! I used to trip solo all the time, just for the hell of it, on a Tuesday or whatever. Seeing things stripped of pretense or in a completely different light was such a draw for me. There are major turning points in my life, good and bad, that revolve around specific trips. Hanging out with my brothers, you might here something dated, "is that before or after the double dipped orange gell tabs night?" Another favorite, "that's the summer we got Yowsered (reallys clean blotter that had Pitfall Harry stamped on the hits) at Allman Brothers Band" still puts a smile on my face, and that happened 25 years ago! Thanks for sharing your adventure. In case no one tells you, The secret knowledge is already in you, and you certainly know the answer to life's problems, even if you can't recall it most of the time. Be good to your fellow humans and to yourself.
