By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw the most precious duo on the train (I know— that is a rare statement). Usually, the trains feel like they emerge from hell (D train, I am looking at you)— but here we are. A different morning. Maybe, I was looking for something different, and that helped me find it.Continue reading “A Train (Love) Story”

The Path is Paved By Choices
“If the path before you is clear, you’re probably on someone else’s.” Joseph Campbell By: Gabriela Yareliz Our path is one we need to clear. That requires making decisions. Choices. I think the world is full of people who are afraid to take ownership of their decisions because they don’t trust they can make theContinue reading “The Path is Paved By Choices”
When Grief Rips Through
“Let’s not romanticize grief. It is a ghost parade. Sleep doesn’t come. Only reckoning.” Rainier Wylde By: Gabriela Yareliz Grief can stem from so many things or circumstances. It is often tied to death, but it can be tied to addiction, abandonment, loss of time, betrayal, not being understood or loved, and the loss of aContinue reading “When Grief Rips Through”
The Essential for the Pilgrimage
“Chronos is time at her worst. Chronos keeps track. Chronos is delusion of grandeur…. Kairos is intimacy with the real. Kairos is time at her best. Kairos lets go.” Sarah Ban Breathnach By: Gabriela Yareliz Time and growth. There has been an insistent pattern in my reading about both lately. The theme has been aboutContinue reading “The Essential for the Pilgrimage”
To the Unseen Words
By: Gabriela Yareliz This one goes out to all the morning pages, journal pages and brain dumps where we process all of the words that jam into our brain channels. Where we let it all out and then, feel free. The great unclogging. I ended last week with a ton of pent up energy andContinue reading “To the Unseen Words”
Mobile Vibe Shifter
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was one of those mornings where I was in a rush. So much so that I had forgotten to put on deodorant. (I hate those days when this accidentally happens). I ran out like a lunatic, and as I made my way to the train station, I heard music. It wasContinue reading “Mobile Vibe Shifter”
An Overlooked Blessing
“I’m grateful that Heaven operates on a ‘need to know’ basis. It’s one of life’s most overlooked blessings.” Sarah Ban Breathnach By: Gabriela Yareliz When life squeezes us and wrings us like an old cleaning rag, we often wish we could have seen whatever we are going through ahead of time. Usually, our wish toContinue reading “An Overlooked Blessing”
Forgiveness
“Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes, they forgive them.” Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray By: Gabriela Yareliz You know what a fun nostalgic watch is for me? Just Shoot Me! Nina Van Horn is forever an icon. I have been rewatching with my husband inContinue reading “Forgiveness”
Overwhelmed with Darkness
By: Gabriela Yareliz Our hearts are so heavy with grief, we don’t know where to look. Spiritually, you feel the darkness. I am tired of seeing Christian children killed in worship and going to school. I am tired of seeing law-abiding citizens get killed and criminals turned loose and defended. I am tired of theContinue reading “Overwhelmed with Darkness”
Narrowed
I heard this quote recently that is a profound expression of truth: “Love eliminates options.” Andy Figueroa People make choices. Choosing is the most sacred thing we do. Love rules our choices, if we allow it to. And when it does, it eliminates options. I heard someone discussing this phrase in coaching. “How have youContinue reading “Narrowed”
