By: Gabriela Yareliz The news coming out of Ceuta, Spain is disturbing and eerily similar to scenes the U.S. border experienced in the past presidential administration. Borders overrun— and not by women and children or even families— no, by military age men. I have seen videos of local women crying and displaying an emotion thatContinue reading “The Games Men Play”

Seek Him Now
“Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near;” Isaiah 55:6 By: Gabriela Yareliz The verse above has been stirring in my mind for some weeks now. I feel this internal urgency. I have noticed there are others who feel it, too. It’s no surprise many feel something isContinue reading “Seek Him Now”
A Hope For Those Feeling Broken
By: Gabriela Yareliz Jena Covello is a household name— she is the founder of Agent Nateur. She posts a lot of health content, specifically around hormones and endometriosis, as this started her journey with Agent Nateur (finding/creating a clean deodorant). Her recent posts had me sad. The woman went through like one year pain-free, andContinue reading “A Hope For Those Feeling Broken”
The Fence
“There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say…a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, ‘I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.’ To which the more intelligent type of reformer willContinue reading “The Fence”
Make Meaning
By: Gabriela Yareliz How do we measure life? I was reflecting on this when Ranier Wylde’s words came to me. Wylde discusses Sisyphus. His piece is great, and it reminded me of how much Stoicism has impacted how I think of things in the world. When faced with a dilemma, I do often stop andContinue reading “Make Meaning”
Game Six (Category 5)
The Carolina Hurricanes reached category five, and they swept the VGK with no mercy. By: Gabriela Yareliz We all underestimated them, but they came ready to grind like a good Southern team. The tarp was off, last night. Yesterday’s win was not luck or circumstance. It was pure grit and systematic grind. Game six endedContinue reading “Game Six (Category 5)”
A Steady Alliance
To my faithful friend who hasn’t left me… By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading a blog post by someone who was discussing how their period has come and gone over the years. I know many women who go on and off with their menstrual cycle throughout their lives. Stories where the body has burnt outContinue reading “A Steady Alliance”

This Week’s Favorites 05.21.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s our first week back home after some time away, and we are on the verge of summer. It’s so close you can taste it. Summer fridays just around the corner, even though we had hail yesterday. I have this itch to clean. To work out. To plan. To be tan. ThisContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 05.21.26”
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”
