Reflections Before Bedtime #26

By: Gabriela Yareliz Walking around here is like walking through a thick stew. It’s warm, thick and pretty much spicy. It’s the land where seashells crackle under our feet, where lizards come out to greet us, and where the sky, even after sunset, is drop-dead gorgeous. We almost envy the stars. The salty air andContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #26”

Reflections Before Bedtime #25

By: Gabriela Yareliz It is in moments of transition that life asks us who we are, not who we want to be, but who we are in the present. Really, the present is all we have for sure. This question of our identity can be scary, tricky, and sometimes confusing. There is the part ofContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #25”

This Month’s Picks: April 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz This month has been a whirlwind. A fulfillment of many things awaited.

Friday Glee: April 24, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz Things are ending slowly, quickly; regardless, they are ending. Things are changing quickly, slowly; regardless, they are changing. Dreams are coming true slowly, quickly; regardless, they are coming true. These next few months will be filled with study routines, exams, airport lines, jet setting, interviews, and the beginning of a career unfolding. I’veContinue reading “Friday Glee: April 24, 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”

Reflections Before Bedtime #11

“But as for me, my prayer is to you, O Lord. At an acceptable time, O God, in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.” Psalm 69:13 (From day 38 of my 90-day challenge) In about eight weeks, life is going to feel like I am jumping off of a cliff withContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #11”
