eyes wide open







“Always keep your eyes open… Never go sleep in the car or anything like that. Keep watching because whatever you see out the window or wherever, it can inspire you.” -     
Grace Coddington (Creative Director, Vogue US) 


It may be due to the fact that I'm still relatively new to this city, but so many times I am so speechless but the sights I see around me. As I was travelling on this train (most probably the wrong one) I was so taken aback by something as simple as the harbour view from the bridge. Does it take one to be completely removed from what we know to appreciate what we see? 


So many moments in time are wasted by us, we find ourselves immersed in our iphones/crackberries, laptops/macbooks, ipad/books that we miss out on scenes like this, scenes that completely take our breathe away. 


Look outside once in a while, you will be so pleasantly astounded by what you see, let yourself be inspired by your own life.
