Poem from Chasers of the Light: poems from the typewriter series by Tyler Knott Gregson. I count the syllables of your laughter and wait for the line breaks of your long deep breaths. I may be a writer but you are a poem and you spill out like ink onto the paper of our days.Continue reading “Chasers of the Light”

Monday Inspiration: November 2, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz On Sunday, the NYC Marathon sliced my neighborhood in half. I kept wondering how I would make it to the other side. Then, when I needed to cross, the runners were gone and so were the barricades. Isn’t that how we spend most of our time? Worrying about things that will runContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: November 2, 2015”
Monday Inspiration: October 26, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz A happy Monday eve to you. Where are you going this week? I took a walk today. The neighborhood smells like leaves and bonfires. I forgot what sweet therapy walking is for the soul. I think this week it’ll be time to take the camera out for a spin to document theContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: October 26, 2015”
Reflections Before Bedtime #42
[Image from @PatriciaManfield. This photo just says, “Boss.”] By: Gabriela Yareliz They say a photo is worth a thousand words. It seems that these days we live off of illusions. Many times, things aren’t what they seem, and people aren’t who they project themselves to be. We hide behind masks and large sunglasses–hoping no oneContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #42”

My limbs are aching after an extremely long and delightful walk. Today was beautiful. Walking is like a drug for me. It was a great dayContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #41”
Knowing Your Commitment
By: Gabriela Yareliz Oftentimes, when we think of (Simon) Peter, we think of the things he said to Jesus. Jesus once told him, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded permission to sift you like wheat; but I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, when once you have turned again,Continue reading “Knowing Your Commitment”
Monday Inspiration: September 14, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hi, hi! It’s Monday! (Partytime music in background). I hope you are ready to conquer your week. The weekend was nice. I met some new people, walked like 70 blocks through Manhattan in fall weather (in heels), cooked, wore a hairnet, started up some Arabic lessons after years of neglect, caught upContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: September 14, 2015”
#TeamRafael
By: Gabriela Yareliz Note: This is in no way a deep or serious discussion; it’s just a braindump. Is anyone else excited to see who Jane will be marrying in season 2 of ‘Jane the Virgin’? October, come quickly. Reveal to us your mysteries. While Michael is sweet and close to perfection, everyone saw himContinue reading “#TeamRafael”
