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”

Everything

“Our job is not to get better at predicting, projecting, or becoming attached to uncertain possibilities, but having sincere faith that what we know needs to happen next is the key that eventually unlocks everything we’ve been waiting for, everything we’ve ever wanted to be.” Brianna Wiest

Restaurant Jordnær

This Chef Eric Kragh Vildgaard video left me with chills. It’s powerful. If you can’t watch the whole thing, please watch the last ten minutes. My husband and I like to watch these chef videos, and this is probably the coolest kitchen and culture I have seen so far. This chef’s life is quite remarkable,Continue reading “Restaurant Jordnær”

Bloody Hell

By: Gabriela Yareliz I felt a rush go through my entire body, and then, a knot surged in my throat.

I was looking for the literal light at the end of the tunnel where the train takes the bridge toward Manhattan. We passed a deceivingContinue reading “The Tunnel”

Weigh the Role

“You get to decide who gets to be a part of your story, and how much.” Brianna Wiest By: Gabriela Yareliz Every day, we decide what roles and weight people have in our lives— the ones we choose and even the ones we are surrounded by circumstantially.

A To Do List by Rainier Wylde

“Get out in it. Wander. Be lost. Eat real food. Order the steak this time instead of the salad. Or both, why choose? Drink the expensive bubbly. Don’t save it. Light a flare, hold it up for everyone to see. Get outside. Sink your feet into the mud. Touch the sky. Call the friends youContinue reading “A To Do List by Rainier Wylde”

No Small Act

By: Gabriela Yareliz I went from listening to a podcast about Alix Earle vs Alex Cooper (I don’t know these people, but it’s all people can talk about) to Oprah talking about the Hoffman Process (I landed there after the heartwarming Emma Grede podcast). I was walking from an appointment, and the sun was showeringContinue reading “No Small Act”
