"We are taught to think inside the box. Then we are taught to think outside the box.What I want us to ask is, Who put the box there?" I like to think of new and better ways of doing things without reinventing the wheel. I have found this to be much more productive when I am in a group where someone tables a 'problem' and everyone brainstorms to find a solution. I missed the times when I used to do this with a group of friends a long time ago and so ... I stared this group because I want to draw …

What are Eye Gazing Parties? The eyes are the windows to the soul, so it’s a lot easier to have a mesmerizing conversation with someone after you've spent two minutes looking into his or her eyes. That is the simple idea behind Eye Gazing Parties. Banal chit-chat about employment status, the location of your apartment, or where you’re from is not a great way to spark a captivating connection with an alluring new person. Eye contact is.
