Reflections Before Bedtime #1
This is like Mandela’s Conversations with Myself, except not as deep. I love the mysteries of the world and the new places I have not found, yet.

They write letters in faith to places with addresses that consists of town rivers and the shack with the blue roof; theyContinue reading “Everyday Miracles”

A Wednesday Unlike Any Other
By: Gabriela Yareliz Today was brutally FANTASTIC. It was a day where lawyering was done in an emotional and deep way. There is something just magical about spilling hope out with honesty. It falls silently and heavy. Today, I heard my voice loud and clear, and it was a gentle reminder that along this crazy journeyContinue reading “A Wednesday Unlike Any Other”
