It’s official–October, baby! Life continues at its slow-fast pace. Life can be looked at in different ways. It can turn into a waiting game. It can turn into a list of things to do. It can turn into a dream. It can turn into a telescope into the future. It can be an adventure. It canContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: September 2014”
Monthly Archives: September 2014
Monday Inspiration; September 29, 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz I just realized that I thought I had some days off this week, but I was wrong. (Typical). Oh, Monday! Why so cruel? (Grin). All right, people; we are going to celebrate Monday. This is a new thing (at least in my world). Monday sets the tone for the rest of the week–andContinue reading “Monday Inspiration; September 29, 2014”
A Philosophy of Walking: Living Deeply
“The eternal child is one who has never seen anything so beautiful, because he doesn’t compare. […] But the walker who marvels while walking (the blue of the rocks in a July evening light, the silvery green of olive leaves at noon, the violet morning hills) has no past, no plans, no experience. He hasContinue reading “A Philosophy of Walking: Living Deeply”
Amal Alamuddin Weds George Clooney
These two bosses got married today. Congrats to the newlyweds! I hope their lives are filled with happiness, joy and love. Most of all, I hope they continue to use their power and influence to help those around them. May they continue being excellent humanitarians, together forever. POWER COUPLE MADE ON SEPTEMBER 27, 2014.
Skin Deep
By: Gabriela Yareliz I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the past. I am doing this thinking it might help someone because it’s slightly mortifying for me. I really believe that when God blesses you, you should pass it on, and share the blessing with others. So, I thought I wouldContinue reading “Skin Deep”
Hero
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, we discourage people even though we mean well. Often, we can’t see when people are really unhappy because all we see is what we want for them. We keep pushing them out of love, not out of malice, because we think we know what is best. I heard Wilson Wilson Jr. tell Tim Taylor a quote: “You don’tContinue reading “Hero”

Facing Loss
By: Gabriela Yareliz Some nights, I listen to Delilah on the radio. Old habits that stay a lifetime, I guess. There is something soothing about her voice and wisdom when night falls. Stories and old favorite songs float around in the darkness as slumber finally seduces the senses into stillness. I love the stories, andContinue reading “Facing Loss”
This Week’s Picks: September 21, 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz [I thought I would bring this back for a minute. People still look up my old weekly compilations.] Temperatures are dropping, lines at the Apple Store are forming, and some of us are planning our next moves (literally). Interview Season One ended, and now Interview Season Two is beginning. Jewish holidays are liberating someContinue reading “This Week’s Picks: September 21, 2014”
The American Dream: Hispanic Heritage Month
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was talking with some friends about the reality of what people face in this country. I think that as law students, we often sound jaded and bitter. Actually, we are jaded and bitter, sometimes. It’s no secret that we deal with life’s tragedies, racism and injustices every single day. Some of usContinue reading “The American Dream: Hispanic Heritage Month”
