Monday Inspiration: November 2, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz On Sunday, the NYC Marathon sliced my neighborhood in half. I kept wondering how I would make it to the other side. Then, when I needed to cross, the runners were gone and so were the barricades. Isn’t that how we spend most of our time? Worrying about things that will runContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: November 2, 2015”
You
By: Gabriela Yareliz You are a warm southern night, a barefoot stroll under strong magnolias. You are a strange rain that takes me by surprise. You are a soft palm branch rustle, coaxing me to unwind. You are a moon full of light; you reveal a path unknown and act as guide. You are aContinue reading “You”
Friday Glee: October 23, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz This hellish little week had to be over at some point, right? I hope you accomplished everything on your list (I am very much a list person; maybe you have another way you tackle your tasks). It’s time for some self care.

Sunday Girl: October 18, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Figure out what it is you want and fight, fight, fight for it. Maybe, a lot of things in life are about seeing how far we are willing to go for something. There is no guarantee we will get it or even come close; and perhaps, along the journey, things will changeContinue reading “Sunday Girl: October 18, 2015”
Reflections Before Bedtime #44
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, I forget my life is just beginning. I forget that I am a perfectionist and that truly, I don’t have everything figured out, and that is okay. It’s when I remind myself of this that my breathing turns normal, and I realize my ponytail is so tight my younger self wouldContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #44”
