“Time is a liar. Stop letting the calendar tell you what’s possible. It doesn’t know who you are. It has no clue what’s still alive for you. Culture measures age in years. It tells us to grow older and grow up. To be reasonable. To trade aliveness for safety. But maturity is not measured byContinue reading “Some Thursday Inspiration”

This Week’s Favorites (4.1.26)
“April, the angel of the months.” Vita Sackville-West By: Gabriela Yareliz Thank God March is over. That is all I can say. March was a month that felt a lot like drowning.

Open Road
By: Gabriela Yareliz I fell in love with this country from the backseat of a car. The Smokies making my ears pop and the blur of orange stone.

She has one of the mostContinue reading “Icono Series: Catherine Zeta-Jones”
Martha Service
By: Gabriela Yareliz My mind has still be stirring with thoughts on service (that and the Johnny Depp trial). I have been enjoying the book Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World by Joanna Weaver. It’s a story that is often told or talked about, especially in regards to women. I feel like mostContinue reading “Martha Service”
Almanac Note: The Robin
By: Gabriela Yareliz Robins have always been my favorite bird. They were always perched by my window just around my birthday in Michigan, while growing up. So, imagine my joy when I saw a little section dedicated to the Robin in my little British Almanac. I learned they are one of the few birds thatContinue reading “Almanac Note: The Robin”
The Problem-Solver: Tata Harper
By: Gabriela Yareliz Tata Harper began her eponymous clean skincare company when she started helping her stepfather, who was diagnosed with skin cancer, to make some lifestyle changes. She couldn’t find the products he needed, so she made them.
