Sparkles

By: Gabriela Yareliz

1] A moment in a memory

I still feel

sparkles

of it in my heart;

like glitter left

falling

in the air.

2] Desire

“Thou hast given him his heart’s desire, and hast not withheld the request of his lips. Se’lah”

Psalm 21:2

3] Shallow pursuits

I think every woman has a beauty or style icon. Someone famous you adore no matter what that person does because you adore him/her for shallow reasons. Someone who you might have identified with or maybe someone who helped you feel better about yourself.

I just wanted to show some gorgeous shots of the professional, comfortable with her body, mother, hardworker, designer, Oscar de La Renta lover (my fav. designer), smoky eyed woman who says she is capable of laughing at herself and admits she is stubborn.

I present to you the lovely Penelope Cruz.

4] Guess who went to The Daily Show, and sat feet away from Jon Stewart?–Me. 🙂 Unforgettable. He is so cool, and super sweet.

Keep those sparkles in your heart–save them to warm you on a cold day.
