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!”

A happy Friday morning to you! We are allegedly in for rain and cooler temps, after today. We’ll take it. So done with summer. A closet sweep still awaits me. The week has felt eternal (last week blurred into this week), the weather fluctuated wildly, and we have finally reached the culmination of it. FloridaContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 09.18.26”
We Remember
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s the 25th year marking the anniversary of 9/11/01. We remember those on the planes who left those last voicemails and never landed at their destinations. We remember the brave ones who fought back. We remember those who went to the office and never came home. We remember the heroes of allContinue reading “We Remember”
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”

Asked for a Sign
And got it. By: Gabriela Yareliz Yesterday, I heard Dr. Edie speak, and her words touched my heart. Deeply. I went out for a walk, and I had that warm feeling— that feeling when you go, I think God just spoke to me just now. It stayed on my mind. Sometimes, we are faced withContinue reading “Asked for a Sign”

By: Gabriela Yareliz Next week, we’ll start September. Everyone keeps asking where summer went. I don’t know. My seasonal transitional cleaning is underway. Yesterday, I wiped down the kitchen cabinets, sorted through cans and refreshed extermination tools. I am satisfied with what I accomplished this week. This week, we lost many people, including the legendaryContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.28.26”

I saw parents dropping off their kids to some of their last 9 am taekwondo classes before classes start up here. (Classes start so late here—) You could feel the end of summer hanging in the cool 68F air after yesterday’s rainstorm, flooding and apparently, Long Island tornado. Back to school reminds me of theContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.21.26”
Reflections on an Equation
By: Gabriela Yareliz There is no good greater than God’s presence. And so much of life becomes a question of what evil, and sometimes what mediocre, lesser good are we willing to surrender for the greatest good of all— to see His face. To stand in His presence for eternity and to worship. So muchContinue reading “Reflections on an Equation”

Hellloooo my summer chickadees, What a week it has been. Here in NYC, we endured the heat wave, legionnaires in the water supply (bless you, UES), The Odyssey premiere (bless you, traffic of the UWS), Canadian wildfire smoke (is the fire punishment for the Canadians killing all those Emus? Kidding— but also not), and lifeContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26”
