Just finished the first piece of what will be a series of three. This series will be dealing with common distractions we find ourselves in. Not only are these distractions harmful to our lifestyle but at times we are unaware we are doing them at all. This is exaggerated in the piece above. The character is mesmerized by the television and open's his cage, oblivious to the tiger shark lurking behind him.
