Ruler in Peace's Laika

Description

Laika's Final Orbits - Series of 20. Getting into NFTs and joining the Muttniks NFT community, I recently read the actual story of Laika the Russian space canine cosmonaut. It is well-known how brave Laika did not survive her space mission as the first being from Earth to orbit the planet but I had not known how intentional her death was. Now I understand how and why the Muttniks NFTs project (cosmicpaws.io) is more than a memorial; it is a reparational project. This has me reflective on how human beings in seats of power have engaged in similar actions and activities again and again, and how important it is for all of us to remain vigilant and engage in acts of redemption versus condemnation. This is what is possible, the world showcasing to itself and ourselves functioning examples of the healing expression of love. This music "peace" of mine, Laika's Final Orbits, communicates my interpretation of Laika's final stretch of minutes of life before she exhausted and succumbed to overheating, letting go of her life in genuine and loyal support to our wrong-footed and immature first steps into space. If you listen you can hear Laika's heart present and strong but fading, and her very blood and her life flowing from her veins into the future. Indeed, certainly she struggled and labored as she finally gave up her beautiful light. We get to remember her sacrifice! We get to honor her life! We get to celebrate Laika! She gave selflessly for people just like you and I. So today, we get to go back in time and be with her when she needed us most. And in this way we can escort her on her journey, and heal the past to the redemption, reward, and well-being of humanity, and even rescue Laika the hero, snatching her from the timestream at that last moment and returning her to grace and new life in the metaverse. This is the song at the start of the dream of the Muttniks NFT project. I wrote Laika's Final Orbits so from this moment on, everyone may hear it and know it.
