Lady Abedin


By: Gabriela Yareliz

Remember Lady Abedin? Ahhh, yes. Anthony Weiner gave an interesting interview to GQ called Anthony Weiner v. The New York Times. Yeah, I read this one instead of the piece called Ted Cruz: The distinguished wacko bird from Texas; this was a piece with a lot of interesting perspective from the journalist who wrote a restoring, 8,000-word piece on Weiner and Abedin before the Sydney Leathers/press conference scandal (and his humiliation that followed the scandal). Weiner lives on with regret for damaging his wife’s reputation, yet remains working ambitiously. In my eyes they are still a fascinating power couple.

Anyway–

Abedin was reported to be dining with Anna Wintour (Vogue, top Democratic supporter–I believe) in Midtown about a week ago…Could this mean something?

While the rest of us speculate, the world keeps on spinning. Interesting things are always happening on the Weiner-Abedin end.

Welcome November!

Can you believe it? Already November. It is so cold outside, and it gets dark quickly. In one day, the temperature changed like 15 degrees. There is longing in the air. Longing for: seeing pets, family laughter, eating soup, staying under the covers all morning, reading something that makes you genuinely smile (and not cry from horror or laugh to cope with horror), listening to music that touches the soul, being hugged, feeling sunshine on your face, seeing an empty calendar, dancing out of happiness, a never ending walk…

Notes on love

By: Gabriela Yareliz

1] Friendship first is a solid foundation

2]
I no longer wish to be loved childishly. I want to be loved with the strength and charm of maturity. I don’t want to be smothered by the fear of jealousy and insecurities. I don’t want a relationship based solely upon shutting the world out and locking each other in. I want to be somewhere where I can breathe. Where, even in the midst of a million people with a million heartbeats surrounding me, I can still know the sound or even play the tune, or nod my head to the rhythm of the one I call “home.” I want to call you home.

3] Chocolate or Flowers?
Camila Cabello from Fifth Harmony was asked: Chocolate or Flowers?
She responded: “You can’t eat flowers…!”

4]
So many people are shut up tight inside themselves like boxes, yet they would open up, unfolding quite wonderfully, if only you were interested in them.
– Sylvia Plath

5] When you find love, cherish it.

6] Declare it

Designed to live by choice

From Life’s Greatest Lessons or 20 Things I Want My Kids to Know, by: Hal Urban

“We can’t choose what happens in our lives, but we can choose how to respond. We have the ability to survive hardship and overcome handicaps. We have the capacity to rise above negative circumstances because we have free will, the freedom and power to choose. Human beings weren’t designed to live by chance. We were designed to live by choice.” Pg 36

“God asks no man whether he accepts life. That is not the choice. You must take it. The only choice is how.” Henry Ward Beecher
