“She quietly expected great things to happen to her, and no doubt that’s one of the reasons why they did.” Zelda Fitzgerald By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Monday! Not much light is coming in through the sky lights today; it is dark, cloudy and rainy with a soundtrack of thunder. On Friday, I attended a veryContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: January 12, 2015”

The Best
“The best is perhaps what we understand least.” C.S.Lewis
Tanto Que Decir
Por Gabriela Yareliz Cielo azul con borde amarillo. El sol se va y se busca un espejo. La luna se viste de dorado, y nos manda recuerdos en cada rayo. Cada día, el cielo nos cuenta una historia; Con sus partes tormentosas, y sus partes de calor. Las estrellas, las pestañas de una mirada queContinue reading “Tanto Que Decir”
Circumstances
Weekend Inspiration
“‘I want to write a novel about Silence,’ he said; ‘the things people don’t say.’” Virginia Woolf, The Voyage Out [If you need to, have a Barbra Streisand moment] A late-night epiphany brought to you by: Gabriela Yareliz You are entitled to make decisions in whatever way you decide to do so.

People occasionally stare at me in the streets: that’s fame. I can fairly easily earn enough to qualify forContinue reading “Sabbath Reading: Malcolm Muggeridge”
This Month’s Picks: November 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz November, November, November. You have given me unexpected gifts, and for that I am grateful.

I once had a discussion with a friend who said there wasContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: November 2014”
My Mistake on: What Every “Godly” Girl Wants in a Man
By: Gabriela Yareliz So, I reblogged a post yesterday that I read, and I honestly think I read it thinking it was saying what I wanted it to say (it’s like being a bad listener, except this is being a bad reader).

Friday Glee: November 14, 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz Baby, it’s cold outside! Full-blown winter out here. And for some reason, the light rain and four-degree wind chill (I exaggerate…) with the twinkling lights makes us feel that life is like a Christmas jewelry commercial (with background music and all). New York City just has that vibe. It doesn’t always have that vibe. OnlyContinue reading “Friday Glee: November 14, 2014”
