Thursday Badinage: August 18, 2016

“For God is not merely mending, not simply restoring a status quo.

Monday Inspiration: March 28, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz From a productive weekend to, what I hope will be, a productive week. Happy week. We begin anew. Last week was absolutely dreadful and draining.

The Sequel Begins

By: Gabriela Yareliz Changes are interesting, and they are particularly interesting when they are a more “permanent” kind of change. This summer was great (I have so many photos and insights to share post-bar exam; I promise, it’s coming soon). Summer is about to conclude with the bar exam. I still think of the yearContinue reading “The Sequel Begins”

Friday Glee: March 27, 2015

“I believe appreciation is a holy thing, that when we look for what’s best in the person we happen to be with at the moment, we’re doing what God does; so in appreciating our neighbor, we’re participating in something truly sacred.” Mr. Rogers By: Gabriela Yareliz Friday, at last.

What you look like? If you do, you don’t know who you are dealing with. God’s greatness and the amazing thingsContinue reading “Who You Are Dealing With”
