This Month’s Picks: February 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz February took us by storm. Winter storm. Ha. What a month. I could use a month to recuperate from February, but no such thing. March madness is here! The ICC Cricket World Cup has been a blast so far (probably because my team is doing well; Go India!). This month has hadContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: February 2015”

Reflections Before Bedtime #11

“But as for me, my prayer is to you, O Lord. At an acceptable time, O God, in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.” Psalm 69:13 (From day 38 of my 90-day challenge) In about eight weeks, life is going to feel like I am jumping off of a cliff withContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #11”

Dreams & Oceans

By: Gabriela Yareliz Soundtrack to the post: Britt Nicole’s “Set the World on Fire” I’m thinking oceans. I’m thinking sunshine. I’m thinking warmth. We are growing up. But at this point in the game, some of us have to realize that we can’t keep thinking about the adults we want to be; we are adults,Continue reading “Dreams & Oceans”

Bunny

When I see her, she reminds me of what it’s like to persevere in faith and loyalty, trusting in the goodness of the hand that provides all things for you. When I see her, I remember her strength, andContinue reading “Bunny”

Remembering Thursday: February 12, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz It really was a Goliath of a Wednesday. Life changes in an instant.

When the Struggle Gets Real: January 29, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz Reading through the Old Testament has been such a treat. I am only in the book of Deuteronomy (still sticking to my 90-day challenge), and truly, it’s amazing how the Bible is a fountain in which one can find new things and learn, no matter how many times you have read certainContinue reading “When the Struggle Gets Real: January 29, 2015”

Wednesday Musings: January 21, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz Back to reading and studying like a beast. Yep. We are back. Vacation is over, people. The law school is bustling like an ant  pile that has been stepped on. The adrenaline is pumping, the soul is sufficiently sleep-deprived, and the arms are full of 50-pound books. It is a weird feeling,Continue reading “Wednesday Musings: January 21, 2015”

Khoshbin Quotes

Compiled by: Gabriela Yareliz I find a lot of inspiration in the Khoshbins. Manny Khoshbin never fails to remind all who look at his success where he came from, and he continues to give back. He is all about positivity, faith and perseverance. He always reminds me that life is about the things that can’tContinue reading “Khoshbin Quotes”

Human Rights Day at the UN

By: Gabriela Yareliz There is no place I would have rather been today, on Human Rights Day, than at the United Nations for the Hague Talks. A big thank you to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the American Bar Association, the UN, and the International Criminal Court Consortium for being such gracious hosts and for theContinue reading “Human Rights Day at the UN”
