“Some periods of our growth are so confusing that we don’t even recognize that growth is happening. We may feel hostile or angry or weepy and hysterical, or we may feel depressed. It would never occur to us, unless we stumbled on a book or a person who explained to us, that we were inContinue reading “Wednesday Badinage: June 28, 2017”

Sunday Girl: June 18, 2017
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Father’s Day to all the papas out there! We are starting a new week! Last week, I celebrated one year with my love, and I ate a giant artichoke for the first time. It was peculiarly good. I feel like life has been such an adventure. I have been learning soContinue reading “Sunday Girl: June 18, 2017”

For example, ourselves. When I saw the last season of New Girl, I realized I was not and would never be likeContinue reading “How Love Unfolds”
True Love’s Kiss
By: Gabriela Yareliz True love’s kiss is not just a song by Amy Adams in the movie Enchanted. Though the movie is phenomenal. There is the jaded, divorced father, the young believing daughter and this wacky, innocent princess character that enters their lives. Spoiler alert, the opposites attract and fall in love. Ahh, what isContinue reading “True Love’s Kiss”
Love Right Now

Life is short, it gets muddied by lies and fear. Be courageous enough to reach out to others, seek forgiveness and redemption in yourContinue reading “Love Right Now”
