Thursday Badinage: May 12, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz God promises, “I will heal your faithlessness.” Jeremiah 3:22 I pray God heals my unbelief and gives me more of the gift of faith. “Behold, we come to You, for You are the Lord our God.” Jeremiah 3:22 His is the honor, the glory, the power. All things are in Him andContinue reading “Thursday Badinage: May 12, 2016”

Reflections Before Bedtime #72

By: Gabriela Yareliz I was catching up on podcasts, and I *so* enjoyed listening to one of my favorites, BBC: World Have Your Say. I love hearing the diverse guests call in and comment on interesting international topics. I was listening to Egypt Protests Five Years On. It took me back to five years ago:Continue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #72”

Friday Glee: February 5, 2016

Hi friends, Today, we explore snowy tragedies, what’s in an age (is it really nothing but a number?), questioning what it means to be really “grown up”, the political scene, breakups, languages, and maybe more– you know, if we get to it. Most of you aren’t from the U.S.; I love looking at my readerContinue reading “Friday Glee: February 5, 2016”

#StormJonas

Gabriela Yareliz By: Gabriela Yareliz We thought autumn would be eternal in these parts, or at least we hoped it would be. Storm Jonas said, “Nah.” Autumn treated us well.

Reflections Before Bedtime #65

The most interesting kind of eyes are the outspoken ones. They have no choice but to be honest. I love the ones that can tell a whole story. The ones that can’t feign interest. The eyes that pretend to ignore but can’t. The ones that can hold a different conversation than the mouth. The eyesContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #65”

Reflections Before Bedtime #63

By: Gabriela Yareliz Close your eyes. Wait, not yet. Read this first, and then close your eyes… What does your dream life look like? Do you have a vision of what you dream of? You don’t have to have one, although, someone wise once said that without vision, people perish. How far or close areContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #63”

Monday Inspiration: January 4, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz Does anyone else’s week seem a bit daunting? Don’t worry. I am not going to sit you down, so to speak, in a dark, dusty study with the tick-tock of an old grandfather clock in the background and tell you my to-do list for the week, while I pace the floor. IContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: January 4, 2016”

Reflections Before Bedtime #55

By: Gabriela Yareliz I don’t want to be the option you are afraid of– I want you to see my love and be sure. I’m standing here without my gown; I’m Cinderella after midnight. I hope you will realize I’m the one who danced with you all night. I hope you decide to find me.Continue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #55”
