Sometimes open; sometimes closed.  I always start with closed eyes but I'll occasionally open my eyes and look out into the trees and flowers in my back yard and allow myself to be awed by the splendor of creation.  It is important to have one's awareness awestruck as often as possible.  As Max Ehrmann points out in his "Desiderata",  "With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it's still a beautiful world.  Be careful.  Strive to be happy."
