After the shooting in Uvalde, something inside of me has been churning... over the last few days of my life, I've been feeling intense pressure from all areas both personally and professionally...

A close-work friend hosted a breathing session mid-day with me yesterday and he played Alan Watts discussing "The Happening".

Over the last day, I became fascinated with his work, especially his audio over chill-step music. 

As I listened to it all night long, I cleaned house and made-up my daughter's play area where building blocks laid out all over the floor. In focused effort, my imagination was in control and those blocks, my playthings -- shaping a blocky object into a modern shotgun or laser gun (reference IWI Tavor TS12).​​​​​​​

All I could think of was a moment earlier in the week, where a phrase hit me... this world needs less villains, and more heroes...

Below I took a picture of the blocky shape I made with my daughter's building blocks.
