By: Gabriela Yareliz Where We Are What does it look like to confront moments of uncertainty? We all do it, day after day.

The Way We Were
By: Gabriela Yareliz People magazine has a list of ‘100 Reasons to Love America’ this week. (I didn’t subscribe; but for some reason, I receive magazines to my address from them). Guess what #100 was? Ben Affleck and J.Lo. I laughed. While it’s a bit ridiculous, it reminded me of relationship nostalgia. Then, there wasContinue reading “The Way We Were”
2020 People
By: Gabriela Yareliz The other night, I was at the window searching for that Christmas star situation.

By: Gabriela Yareliz The town of Amatrice, Italy was destroyed by an earthquake. Praying for all who are suffering loss. This tragedy brought memories of the 2009 earthquake in Italy. Below, is a song I absolutely love that was recorded by popular Italian artists to raise money for the cause.

Causing Commotion
By: Gabriela Yareliz Some things are simply iconic in our minds. This scene from Malena is an iconic scene that I absolutely adore. This reminds me of what it’s like to walk through New York, sometimes. Oh to be like Malena! A showstopper; Causing Commotion; Making them talk; Making them watch. “Show’s over! She’s gone now!”
Weird News
1] Primaries for the Democratic Candidate for the Mayoral Race in NYC (Sept. 10) Looks like De Blasio is in the lead. He flaked on the Q & A, and the event was canceled at the church last week. Still, he seems to be one of the best options out there. We’ll see what happens.Continue reading “Weird News”
