A remix of what is in my brain… Don’t see yourself through the eyes of others. There will be times where others will think you have suffered a great loss, but you are actually winning.

¡Gracias 2015!
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am about to fall asleep, and I probably won’t wake up until it’s time to see Dilip, Prateek and Harshul.

Open Roses
By: Gabriela Yareliz Life is continual growth. Life is like a rose. Suddenly, some insecurities begin to fade; things we weren’t sure we liked about ourselves, about others; imperfections that needed to be dealt with and not just ignored; the path we are walking without a clear view of the future… And as we continue toContinue reading “Open Roses”
