Our blogpost this week is a bit different because it’s about us!
We’re a year old and we thought we’d take a couple of minutes to talk about how we got started, what our goals are, and where we’re going.
Our goal is to be the “home of happiness”. And, to restate our mission statement:
Anyhigh.life is a platform of happiness where anyone who is tripping is welcome. We want you to tell us about the highs you’ve been on – mental, physical, spiritual. We want everyone to feel comfortable to define your experiences in a safe, positive, free-form environment. As the moderators of Anyhigh.life, we are not here to promote, condone, or condemn. We pass no judgement. We look at ourselves as merely purveyors of joy.
How did this all begin? It was into the second year of the pandemic. We were working from home, unable to leave our apartment for weeks at a time. After a year of this we, like most everyone else everywhere else, we’re struggling to stay positive. And, as most of you can relate, it wasn’t easy.
Sitting on our balcony one night, watching the darkened, silent city below, empty of all but the occasional, solitary car, we thought, wouldn’t it be great if people had a place where they could share positive stories. We were so tired of hearing everything negative nearly all the time. Stories about things they’ve done in the past, places they’ve been, experiences they’ve had that were uplifting, inspirational, or just a hell-of-a-lot-of fun.
Sure, there were lots of social-media sites out there already. But we wanted to try to be something a bit different. Anyhigh.life would be a place where people could be creative, but only in a positive way. Not a place for debate or for arguing about good/bad, right/wrong. Simply a place where people could share stories and pics and videos about experiences that they’ve personally had that might make people smile and maybe get excited about the possibility of experiencing something similar.
This is where our Forums section comes into play. It's where we want you to share your best trips:
Activities: Anything not consumable that sends the endorphins into overdrive
Food: Talk about your best culinary experiences – restaurants, meals – anything related to chewable consumption
Beverages: Over ice or steaming, screw top or cork – if it goes down in just a swallow or two, this is the place to tell us about it
Substances: Only good trips please!
The Arts: Audio, visual, published or something else, if it’s worth a thousand words share some of them with us here
Spiritual/Mystical: When a higher power takes you on an amazing trip, this is the place to talk about it
Way Out There: For anything that doesn’t fall easily into any of our other categories – and remember, we don’t judge!
And by the way, our definition of “trips” is “experiences”. Experiences sounded kind of clinical to us and trips was just more fun. And that’s what we’re here for ultimately. For fun! Which is what our weekly blogpost is normally trying for. To look at something, sometimes common sometimes unusual, but always in a new and different way. A way that, hopefully, makes you think a bit differently and that makes you smile, maybe even laugh if we get lucky enough.
You can even listen to some of our favorite songs via our Spotify Playlist at the top of our Blog section.
So that’s our story. We are happy to see that our community of like-minded people, people who are interested in the world and all it has to offer, is slowly growing. The stories and pictures that have been shared have been great. We hope that we’ll see many more as we move into our second year of tripping. Because, most importantly, YOUR TRIP IS OUR HIGH!
If you haven’t joined us already, we hope you will and we hope you’ll tell your friends about us. You can find all our links right here: https://linktr.ee/anyhigh.life
