February was a jam-packed month. We found this beautiful coffee place called Felix’s. I tried Spring Aspen Cafe and Jack’s Wife Freda (loved their salmon burger). We spent a beautiful day out-of-state doing important things. It was incredibly memorable. I loved my flowers that I was gifted that day. We ate good food. It wasContinue reading “February 2024 Favorites”

Winter Lessons
Themes from today: 1. In a nutshell— what Marcus Aurelius said: “Comfort is the worst addiction.” 2. Miracles are everywhere. Truly. 3. “Change is the right danger to choose.” Erwin Raphael McManus 4. If the ending ain’t good, you haven’t reached the end yet. There is so much more than what meets the eye.
Daring to be Alive
By: Gabriela Yareliz There has been so much pain and heaviness this month. I have wanted to come close and write but have sort of been at a loss for words. The attack on Israel on October 7 was horrific to watch. Hostages are still being held and away from their loved ones. I couldContinue reading “Daring to be Alive”
Where We Set Our Feet
“Anywhere God walks is not beneath us.” Stand Against the Wind, Erwin R. McManus I read this quote this morning, and it shook me. This will mean different things to different people, but it was such a reminder of the humility of Jesus, and not only in His earthly ministry, but the fact that, today,Continue reading “Where We Set Our Feet”
Bigger
By: Gabriela Yareliz “‘Aslan,’ said Lucy, ‘you’re bigger.’ ‘That’s is because you are older, little one,’ he answered. ‘Not because you are?’ ‘I am not. But every year you grow, you will find me bigger.’” Prince Caspian, C.S. Lewis I loved this passage from C.S. Lewis. It made me reflect on how God is alwaysContinue reading “Bigger”
A Thought About Pace
I read something powerful yesterday about rest and slowing down. Jesus was in no rush and lived a life full of interruptions, people and an unexpected pace. After Lazarus (His bff) died, it took Him days to get to him. Throughout His ministry you see His “slow” pace. Sometimes, we attribute this to Jesus’ divinity—Continue reading “A Thought About Pace”
Optional
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was on a coaching call this week, and I heard something that hit me, deep. On these coaching calls, people share things they are struggling with to be coached live. I don’t remember what was being shared, but I do remember the coach’s response: “Shame is optional.” I found that toContinue reading “Optional”

“The older you get, the more you realize it’s not what happens, but how you deal with it.” Tina Turner, 1939-2023 I love that quote by the legendary Tina Turner, may she rest in peace. This month was the hardest. There were days where all I had were questions, stacked. Despite the loss and heavinessContinue reading “May 2023 Favorites”
The Gift
By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, I got in an Uber with a driver who was probably on FaceTime with someone because as I got into the car and buckled up, I heard a woman cough. He then coughed seconds later to cover it up. He wasn’t fooling anyone. I am not sure why he needed to.Continue reading “The Gift”
