But you treat it as though it is nothing more than a piece of literature.” Mahatma Gandhi By: Gabriela Yareliz I’ve talked to people, and I have realizedContinue reading “Ninety-day Challenge”

What We Celebrate
By: Gabriela Yareliz When you have witnessed someone’s pain after they have experienced sex trafficking, and sexual abuse and assault, pornography and the culture’s obsession with sex doesn’t seem as innocent.

Be Thou My Vision
These lyrics were on my mind all day: Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise, Thou mine Inheritance, now and always: Thou and Thou only, first in my heart, High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art. Heart of my own heart, whate’er befall, Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Reflections Before Bedtime #4
By: Gabriela Yareliz When you keep someone at arms length, you eventually lose him or her. You lose him or her in the crowd of people who influence you and whom you are trying to please, and you lose him or her in your fog of fears.
