Reflections Before Bedtime #28
By: Gabriela Yareliz Ever since exams and since one of my mentors passed away, I have been in the weirdest, frazzled little state of mind. The smallest things seem to trigger the biggest waves of emotion, and my perspective is very “big picture.” The bar exam is keeping me busy, focused and anti-social (as itContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #28”
This Month’s Picks: June 2015
“I have only one hope in life and that is to be used by God. The more highly we think of ourselves and our abilities and our talents, the less God can use us. I pray that God might humble me so that I understand that I am just an instrument in His hands.” A.Continue reading “This Month’s Picks: June 2015”
Monday Inspiration: June 22, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw the bar exam countdown calendar. Thirty-something days left. I shuddered. This is insane; the way time has run away, kidnapping our summer.

It’s simplicity mixed with what is natural; mixed with extravagant colors and memorable fragrances. It’s peace, mixed with hope and belief. It’s miles and miles of freedomContinue reading “Soul Structure”
Reflections Before Bedtime #26
By: Gabriela Yareliz Walking around here is like walking through a thick stew. It’s warm, thick and pretty much spicy. It’s the land where seashells crackle under our feet, where lizards come out to greet us, and where the sky, even after sunset, is drop-dead gorgeous. We almost envy the stars.

“Stop planting flowers in people’s yards who aren’t going to water them.” Unknown By: Gabriela Yareliz So much has happened. Life continues to change in delightful ways. Nostalgia grips; beginnings commence; and other things end. Moments of transition are so bittersweet. Regardless, moving forward is always something positive no matter how huge the growing curveContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: June 8, 2015”

“Some things don’t work out how we want them to, but in the end we get what we want, even though we didn’t know we wanted it all along.” Gabriela Yareliz
Worth It
By: Gabriela Yareliz Why is it that we quickly forget our value and worth? This happens often when we have kind of pinned our worth on a person, position or thing or when we look around to compare ourselves to others.
