I value closed eye moments. Usually when I close my eyes and breathe properly, life takes on the best flavors and shapes. Over the past few days I've been closing my eyes quite a bit. It helps me center and focus on whatever tasks are required to finish the day. Do you ever feel like that? Like a day is just a set of requirements... I'm counting days until New York City.

I woke up in the morning and realized I could edit stills into video; came across some CDs I haven't listened to in ages as operation house re-vamp continues; and picked a piece of a poem at random to read.
