By: Gabriela Yareliz Rumors of a recession swirl. Our economy has been in a bubble for far too long. Is it time for the long awaited pop and self-correction? Let’s be real, in many ways this has been inevitable. What we chose in the last election was who we want to lead us out ofContinue reading “A Rothbart World”

The Idea of Balance
By: Gabriela Yareliz I keep hearing about the idea of balance. Does it exist? Is it real? Most entrepreneurs say no. Most parents of young children say no. Some people who work 9-5 say yes. I guess balance (if it exists) rides the waves. I guess, though, if it comes in seasons that are sprinkledContinue reading “The Idea of Balance”
The Pages
“All I wanted to do with my life was fill the pages.” Jhumpa Lahiri Same, Jhumpa, same. Words have the power to do that to you. They sort of take over and fill your mind with swollen dreams. Pages flying into every corner of the heart.
Goalie

It goes against all human instincts to avoid pain or direct impact. Sometimes in life, to get the job done right, we have to go against allContinue reading “Goalie”

You have to wait a bit longer. It’s like chewing through those gummy bears that are (I swear) madeContinue reading “Bubbles”
Seasons
By: Gabriela Yareliz Spring reminds us that rebirth is upon us, and the future is around the corner. We can’t skip seasons, and we can’t skip chapters. Through the good and the bad, we keep going. Through the uncertainties we push through. When the page is blank, we grab the pen. Our power rests inContinue reading “Seasons”
Six Months
By: Gabriela Yareliz I keep coming across this thought— six months. Where will we be in six months? Anything is possible. Your current circumstance is not permanent. Today, no matter what you are going through, I urge you to take care of yourself, and do something that nourishes your spirit. When things get hard, rememberContinue reading “Six Months”
The Library
By: Gabriela Yareliz Few places held the magic of a library for me when I was a kid. It’s still a revered temple for the mind. A sacred space. The library, for me, was a place of safety inside of new school after new school. I sought it out, no matter how small. In SouthContinue reading “The Library”
