For the Seeker
By: Gabriela Yareliz The city was bustling with visitors from all over; it was Passover time. The priests had arrested Jesus, and wanted to “get rid of Him” in the most discrete manner, while the people were preoccupied with Passover.

Aprendiz de Moccia: H y Gin-tonic
By: Gabriela Yareliz Esta película…no sé, me quede encantada. La ví en mayo. Es una película triste. No es un cuento de hadas. Es una historia de amor maduro. Tiene que ver con el pasado, el futuro y más que nada el trabajar por el presente. Es del dolor que muchas veces llevamos por dentro.Continue reading “Aprendiz de Moccia: H y Gin-tonic”
