By: Gabriela Yareliz September glory days are here. I am sitting here in a cozy but loud coffee shop. A sweet guy tried to tell a zany writer not to get more shots of espresso because it was bad for her, and I am here drinking a green juice whose taste of celery is waaayyyContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: September 7, 2015”

Bar Trip
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s a tradition, I guess, that frustrated and relieved law graduates take a trip after graduation and after taking the bar exam. Many go; whether broke, well off, employed, unemployed– August is jet-set time. I got lucky that I got a special gift from above (after all, the Bible says all goodContinue reading “Bar Trip”
Like the Leper
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading the account of the ten lepers who called out to Jesus for healing in Luke 17:11-19.

I still think of the yearContinue reading “The Sequel Begins”

Independence Day
“God has paid us the intolerable compliment of loving us, in the deepest, most tragic, most inexorable sense.” C.S. Lewis By: Gabriela Yareliz I believe in a human race that was created with the greatest expression of love which is freedom; freedom to choose. There can be no true love without freedom to make itContinue reading “Independence Day”
Friday Glee: May 29, 2015
“Like a wild flower; she spent her days, allowing herself to grow, not many knew of her struggle, but eventually all; knew of her light.” Nikki Rowe By: Gabriela Yareliz The past few days have been filled with flowers, sunshine, computer screens, notebooks, friends– a whirlwind. Bar studying and other tensions have taken a front seat.Continue reading “Friday Glee: May 29, 2015”
A.D. The Bible Continues
This is going to be quite the premiere on NBC on Easter Sunday. I have no idea how Biblically accurate it will be, but I would like to check it out. Watching this sneak peek from the series reminded me of my intense journey through the Bible right now. The truth is, the Bible continuesContinue reading “A.D. The Bible Continues”

She guides me and inspires me to look at what really matters and to always seek Truth.] I want to stop being afraid. I want to start living life at another level. It’s easy to see people who have “madeContinue reading “Stopping and Starting”
