By: Gabriela Yareliz Goodbye July, and enter August. I typically think of August as a month of new beginnings (it’s the student in me). July was crazy intense. I was blessed to be able to go to the General Conference Session for the Global Seventh-day Adventist Church in San Antonio, Texas; I finished my barContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: July 2015”

Thoughts from a Temporary Cat Lady
By: Gabriela Yareliz Where I am staying, there is a little cat that is afraid of many things. Any sudden movement, and she disappears. I suppose many past, bad experiences brought her to her nervous state. So now, even though she is safe, she is still afraid. I was talking to the cat while IContinue reading “Thoughts from a Temporary Cat Lady”
No Fear
By: Gabriela Yareliz Those of you who read my random musings know I am all about self-improvement and growth. I believe that truly living out God’s purposes for our lives means combatting our fears and moving past our comfort zones.

Monday Inspiration: July 6, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Monday. I know I am late in like every time zone. Anyway. A new week has begun. Those of us in our study caves are glancing up from our kerosene lamps and books at our quickly fading calendar countdown for the big exam. I bought a one-way ticket today, *holds breath*;Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: July 6, 2015”
Monday Inspiration: June 8, 2015
“Stop planting flowers in people’s yards who aren’t going to water them.” Unknown By: Gabriela Yareliz So much has happened. Life continues to change in delightful ways.

Regardless, moving forward is always something positive no matter how huge the growing curveContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: June 8, 2015”
Monday Inspiration: May 25, 2015 (Memorial Day)
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Memorial Day weekend. Of course, on a day like today we remember those who have died while serving our great country. It’s also a day filled with BBQs, food, family and relaxing (something we can do because of those the day honors). I hope my U.S. readers had a lovely andContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: May 25, 2015 (Memorial Day)”
Monday Inspiration: May 18, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s time to get that Monday positivity up. Our to-do lists are as full as they are going to be this week (I hope), and things will be crossed off (and hopefully not added) as the week progresses. In life, we continue to grow and progress, and after one hurdle is conquered, anotherContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: May 18, 2015”
Tuesday Badinage: May 12, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s exam season in law school. The final days countdown. Oh, law school. You can meet noble people, strange people, catty people, self-centered people (the world in one building, minus the racial diversity)– and it is often said that all attorneys have some kind of ego complex. Not sure if that is accurate. Maybe itContinue reading “Tuesday Badinage: May 12, 2015”
Reflections Before Bedtime #19
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes in life, we make the mistake of thinking that people will have to come around to respecting and accepting us and our ways of thought. It doesn’t always happen, obviously. We know this, but it stings a little when it unfolds in real life. People owe us nothing, and best ofContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #19”
