Napkin Rings
[Image from @KushaAlagband] By: Gabriela Yareliz I recently read a fantastic post by one of my favorite writers, Candid Kay. It was a reflection on a legitimate fear and problem.

Monday Inspiration: April 11, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz This week is going to be like climbing a mountain. Monday was the “strap-on-the-backpack” day. And how about those taxes? *eyes as big as tomatoes* Adulting is hard. Learning things and trying to figure out life when you don’t quite understand what the heck you are doing… That requires bravery, my friends.Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: April 11, 2016”
