All Of You

Written by Jacob Ibrag

When Eyes + Words was created, the intention was to

slow down time. On January 1st, 2015, I had realized that

I couldn’t remember much of 2014. My life was filled with

deadlines and routine. I had went through certain things

in the early parts of 2014, but that was it. The rest of the

year was just a blur, like it never happened. In an effort to

take back some of that time, I decided to start writing

everyday, figuring that I’d be able to track the year and truly

feel the moments as they came. And to my surprise it worked.

Everyday a poem or story, and something happened. All of

you started paying attention. You connected with my words

and I wanted to give you more. Then you started sharing your

stories and thoughts and I was intoxicated by all of it. You

made this the greatest and most memorable year of my life.

I just hope we can keep connecting and share our stories with

more friends that are willing to listen. Have a beautiful start

to hopefully  another memorable year.

Thank You.
