Tuesday Badinage: November 29, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s raining in NYC, today. Christmas decorations are up. The city looks beautiful and glittery, like the movies. I had a hectic morning. Lost my metro card, missed my train, almost didn’t make it into Court on time because of the weather and the long security line wrapped around the building. IContinue reading “Tuesday Badinage: November 29, 2016”

Reflections Before Bedtime #91
By: Gabriela Yareliz (written as a note to a loved one) This world is filled with so much that is bizarre, but also so much that is so beautiful.

Sunday Girl: October 30, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was going up the stairs, after getting off of a train. There were so many people, it felt like the people were pushing me up the stairs.

Sunday Girl: September 25, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s like someone flipped a switch. Autumn began with the cutest Google animation of little rocks eating a leaf (did anyone else see the adorableness?), and then, BAM, sixty-degree weather that makes your nose run. I was almost stranded in Jersey City last night with a shut-down Path train station, and aContinue reading “Sunday Girl: September 25, 2016”
Monday Inspiration: September 12, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Monday! I saw a sign that said: “I run on caffeine, chaos and cuss words.” So cheesy. But, it made me wonder– what do I run on? We all run on something; especially on Mondays. What are your three things? I guess mine sign would say: “I run on vegan/gluten free proteinContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: September 12, 2016”
