Wednesday Badinage: June 28, 2017
“Some periods of our growth are so confusing that we don’t even recognize that growth is happening. We may feel hostile or angry or weepy and hysterical, or we may feel depressed. It would never occur to us, unless we stumbled on a book or a person who explained to us, that we were inContinue reading “Wednesday Badinage: June 28, 2017”

Planner
By: Gabriela Yareliz Not to sound like Pat Benatar, but life is a battlefield, and I am that woman. The planner. Always prepared. I always used my school planner, when I was younger.

Sabbath Inspiration: June 10, 2017
“But you must stubbornly walk into that room, regardless, and you must hold your head high. You made it; you get to put it out there. Never apologize for it, never explain it away, never be ashamed of it. You did your best with what you knew, and you worked with what you had, inContinue reading “Sabbath Inspiration: June 10, 2017”
Monday Inspiration: June 5, 2017
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am on my lunch break, thinking back at something my mom suggested, which is entirely true.
