By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello my dears, It’s hot, humid and cloudy. Yes, but life is still good. I keep avoiding my legal summer reading (I know I will get to it). Come into the law student and lawyer’s mind: Apparently, law school makes you hate anything with serious words listed one after the other inContinue reading “This Week’s Picks: August 11, 2013”

L.I.F.E.
Namesake: Gabriela Mistral
A true poet once said: (Rough translation): “I would only like to be one of the reasons for your smile, maybe a small thought on your mind in the morning, or perhaps a lovely memory on your mind before sleeping.

This Week’s Picks: August 4, 2013
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, we don’t understand everything that happens to us, but it is important to see God’s hand in everything. We must remember there is nothing that escapes His attention.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan: Meera
By: Gabriela Yareliz NOTE: This is a character and movie analysis so: Spoiler Alert. Yash Chopra made his last film a deeply religious one. I don’t know if this reflects a belief he had close to the time of his death, or a philosophy or vision of God questioned or clung to. Perhaps it wasContinue reading “Jab Tak Hai Jaan: Meera”
Youth
