All Hail, The Clooneys!

  By: Gabriela Yareliz [Images from The Daily Mail, sources are corner stamped] Can we take a moment to soak up the elegance and commanding presence of the Clooneys? Stunning. These two lit Berlin on fire.

Altogether Beautiful

[Image by Dolce & Gabbana] By: Gabriela Yareliz San Valentino is upon us, as the Italians would say. This brought to mind notes from the romantic story of Ruth. This brings us to start with Proverbs 31:29, “Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.” Those would be words used to describe aContinue reading “Altogether Beautiful”

Reflections Before Bedtime #70

This is a special brain-dump edition of Reflections. 1) Did anyone see the Justin Bieber GQ cover? See below. Look who’s all grown up! We forgive you, Justin, we forgive you. (Insert an Uncle Jesse *Have mercy!* here). 2) The Spanish Mafia was at the Goyas 2016. And now, they are in NYC for NYFW.Continue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #70”

Reflections Before Bedtime #69

By: Gabriela Yareliz To be. We aren’t talking about “to have” or “to do,” but “to be.” I was talking* with someone recently, and we were discussing how we always celebrate what people do (selectively), but we don’t exactly celebrate who people are. We’ll celebrate a football player who body slams another, but he couldContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #69”

Most of you aren’t from the U.S.; I love looking at my readerContinue reading “Friday Glee: February 5, 2016”

“It’s a ring”

It’s no secret that I love people’s stories, and I love power couples. So, when I saw that Clooney shared how he proposed, he had my full attention. He said he never thought he’d marry again, but then, six months after meeting Amal, he knew he didn’t want to live without her. Maybe, people outContinue reading ““It’s a ring””

This Week’s Theme

By: Gabriela Yareliz I love that in the face of confusion, uncertainty, disappointment, hopes and desires, God says to us: “[T]hereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.”Continue reading “This Week’s Theme”
