ICYMI A meteorite flew into the Atlanta area last week moving at 30,000 miles per hour. It broke apart and generated 20 tons of TNT in the atmosphere, enough energy to destroy a city block.
I started thinking – if that energy could be harnessed, what would I do with it? I became an Avenger on a laptop.
According to AI, humans typically use large bursts of energy in destructive ways.
Ok. So, if I wanted to use immense energy constructively, how could I do that exactly?
“Nearly impossible,” AI wrote back. “
“…but since this was science fiction, there are 2 ways to use an enormous amount of physical energy constructively:
1. Containing a massive explosion.
2. Moving massive objects safely.”
I continued to wonder. If people were typically using raw energy and power destructively, AI says there’s a chance – a choice to use it constructively.

Like a super hero’s alter-ego and other clichés, I dove deeper into the abstract macro. Positive vs negative, love vs hate, good vs evil.
At the core, a super hero uses immense energy to either create or destroy.
From the lab to the streets, energy and power-wielding outwardly reflect a person’s core values. Do we build up or tear down?
Captain America didn’t know what he was capable of, at first. And Thanos is destruction at his core.
In honor of the anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the abundance of energy generated in the atmosphere today to celebrate it, explode those fireworks and transmute bursts of energy into your thang.
Are you choosing to be generous or stingy? For good or for evil?
Here’s to staying awake to the end of the movie to see what happens. 
“”With great power comes great responsibility.”
