This Week’s Favorites 10.24.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz We’ve reached the end of October. The days start in the low 50s and end in the 70s. So hard to dress. I sweat through two jackets this week. I know I am always talking about sweating, but I don’t think I have sweat this much in my life like this year.Continue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.24.26”
A Bit Better
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw a question in passing the other day— what could make your life 17% better this week? Let’s go— Not getting slapped in the face by the napkin on the street that gets swept up by the wind and flies wildly looking for its next victim. (Sick). Getting some appointments bookedContinue reading “A Bit Better”
The Duty for Weary Seasons
By: Gabriela Yareliz I finished reading Tish Harrison Warren’s book on resilience, What Grows in Weary Lands. It is a gem, as all her books are. It had takeaways such as: “But I can wait. I can keep going. The practices of our faith, acts of perseverance and trust that may feel futile, are atContinue reading “The Duty for Weary Seasons”
This Week’s Favorites 10.09.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am sitting here staring at my bag of baby Jesuses. I need to do better and distribute them. The week went. Maybe it was the PMS, but it was a week of a wide range of emotions. You just feel everything amplified. The joy (petting alpacas) and the rage (people whoContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.09.26”
Soul Cure
By: Gabriela Yareliz There are weeks where we fall into old patterns of behavior, and we do not take proper care of ourselves. We all have them. This week, while sick no less, it was one of those weeks for me. I was doing my exercise routine but definitely overdid it at work. Falling backContinue reading “Soul Cure”
Hi! Hi!
From my throne of crumpled tissues. By: Gabriela Yareliz Greetings from the couch, where I sit like a queen surrounded by tissues. It has been a sniffly one. I am slowly regaining my ability to breathe through my nose. My nose is drying up. Bless. Yesterday, was a meaningful Tunnel to Towers. Due to theContinue reading “Hi! Hi!”
This Week’s Favorites 09.25.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz How is this the last favorites for September 2026? Facts. This week was busy. Left me feeling like Punch in this pic: My wish came true, and it’s SWEATER WEATHER. The wind has it feeling 9F cooler than it is. A dream. I wore fleece, sweaters and a set of light jacketsContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 09.25.26”
Last Week’s Favorites 09.13.26
Hello my fellow journey(wo)men, It’s a rainy morning here in NYC after some hot temperatures this week. The sun was roasting. The rest of us were yearning for fall. I am still wrapping up Nantucket Second Chances; you would have thought that with all of the brutal train delays this week I would have finishedContinue reading “Last Week’s Favorites 09.13.26”
Grace for the Pilgrimage
“Because the Christian life isn’t just a beautiful beginning. It’s a pilgrimage. There are stretches of joy, but there’s also struggle, weariness, temptation, and moments when everything in us wants to turn back. That’s why remaining in Christ requires perseverance. It requires remembering, again and again, where the journey began: in grace. It was graceContinue reading “Grace for the Pilgrimage”
