I wish I put down my camera long enough to properly savour the entire moment.</p> <p>Related: Last month at the City and Colour concert, Dallas Green asked the audience to stop taking photos or video just for a couple songs. He said, “Some of you are trying so hard not to forget this moment, that you’re forgetting to live in it.”</p> <p>Halfway though this song tonight, I remembered what Dallas had said and spent the back half of the song focusing on Ryan. This song has to be one of my favorite love songs ever. =)</p>http://valenofficial.com/post/17813474969http://valenofficial.com/post/17813474969Sat, 18 Feb 2012 00:13:46 -0800<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ijV_lfYCTLA?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Didn’t you?</p> <p>Rest in peace, Whitney Houston.</p>http://valenofficial.com/post/17703827556http://valenofficial.com/post/17703827556Wed, 15 Feb 2012 23:49:54 -0800““There are things that should be kept between me and God.
