I returned from Patagonia in January 2021 to acquire more funding for the book and work toward my goals.
In August 2021, everything changed.
My father died. It was sudden and unexpected. I felt like I was drowning.
Grief is like the ocean. It comes in waves. At times, we feel like we control it, but in the end, we have to surrender to it completely.
I was terrified of the emotional abyss.
I had to pick a challenge so much bigger than myself that I could distract myself from what I was feeling by contributing to a more significant cause. My father was a software engineer in the aircraft industry, and he told me about web3 before I knew what web2 meant. In my hope to reconnect to what suddenly was gone forever and too early, Behold The Ocean found its way to the blockchain: an innovative concept to fund science powered by the NFT community and as a personal attempt to heal through my practice.
