By: Gabriela Yareliz I am sitting here staring at my bag of baby Jesuses. I need to do better and distribute them. The week went. Maybe it was the PMS, but it was a week of a wide range of emotions. You just feel everything amplified. The joy (petting alpacas) and the rage (people whoContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.09.26”

Hi! Hi!
From my throne of crumpled tissues. By: Gabriela Yareliz Greetings from the couch, where I sit like a queen surrounded by tissues. It has been a sniffly one.

Asked for a Sign
And got it. By: Gabriela Yareliz Yesterday, I heard Dr. Edie speak, and her words touched my heart. Deeply. I went out for a walk, and I had that warm feeling— that feeling when you go, I think God just spoke to me just now. It stayed on my mind.

Delay

Discipline
“That’s why optimism is a discipline. It takes discipline to see the good when things are going bad. It takes discipline to see beauty in the midst of tragedy. It takes discipline to see the best in people when they let us down. It takes discipline to forgive when the person does not deserve it.Continue reading “Discipline”
The Gift of Vision
“Never forget that the gift of vision was so important that when the world was first created, the first command was for Light in order to see, and after finishing each day’s task, the Great Creator glanced back and ‘saw that it was good.’ We need to see how good it is, too.” Sarah BanContinue reading “The Gift of Vision”
