Looking back now…
it’s kind of crazy what we were allowed to do.
Plugging in a hot plate in your bedroom.
Melting colorful plastic right there on the table.
Pouring it into molds like little scientists.
The smell filled the room.
The colors were bright.
The excitement was even brighter.
You didn’t think about danger.
You just thought about what you were creating.
Little bugs.
Little creatures.
Something you made with your own hands.
It felt like magic.
Today, people would panic.
But back then…
it was just another afternoon.
And somehow, we all turned out just fine.
