By: Gabriela Yareliz I am cominggg… It has not been the typical holiday travel whirlwind. Thank God. I took a train to where my shuttle was supposed to pick me up. It never came.

By: Gabriela Yareliz A snippet of me being with the people I love the most, my family. This one goes out to the people who make my eyes sparkle; the people God has gifted to me as my home.
