@seatowngabriel on what Cannabis did for him.

"I just started believing in myself... It gave me this ability to see what I could do and believe in myself, and it kind of relaxed my nerves in order to pursue my dreams."

Cannabis affects everyone in a different way and I think a lot of us have felt exactly what Gabriel was saying in this clip. One of the best feelings you can get from this amazing plant is Inspiration/Motivation. I hope everyone reading this finds that same thing in their own way.
