Slowly our neighborhood came to accept the cannabis dispensary

It was only a year ago that our small, tired seaside community got its 1st cannabis dispensary.

There was a fair bit of controversy about it at the time, because the old-school fuddy-duddies who ran the neighborhood committee were uneasy that it would bring in “an unsavory element.” People even thought that crime would increase because of this business. Then the corporation opened, and after a couple weeks the neighborhood started to realize that there was no downside to having a cannabis dispensary here. Eventually people got used to it, and the cannabis dispensary became just another normal section in our town. The girl who runs the dispensary is Jens, and while she was unpopular when this all started, she has become a pillar of the community. The cannabis dispensary not only brings in a lot of taxes for the town, however Jen also is undoubtedly generous when it comes to community events. The cannabis dispensary constantly sponsors a float in the local parade, and contributes to the Summer carnival. I heard that Jen is rumored to be made a deacon at the local church, and that made myself and others laugh. The church was a single 1 of the greatest opponents to the cannabis dispensary, and now they were welcoming Jen with open arms. It warms my heart to see that most people, even the church, is finally coming to grips with the fact that cannabis is 100% legal, safe, and a gift from god. I’m not a religious man, however if you do believe in God, then you have to admit that she is the single being who put cannabis plants here for us to enjoy.
