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”

Reflections Before Bedtime #61
By: Gabriela Yareliz The day was as bitter as the cold outside. And it was as blurry as city lights through tear-filled eyes. [Images from Pinterest]
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”
Happy Week: November 8, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz A new week begins, again.The pharmacy looks like a Christmas wonderland. I was walking through Little Italy, and there are already ‘Merry Christmas’ light banners shimmering in the night above the streets. Still no sign of eggnog, anywhere. This is frustrating, but anyway… This weekend was a good weekend. I saw oldContinue reading “Happy Week: November 8, 2015”
Friday Glee: October 23, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz This hellish little week had to be over at some point, right? I hope you accomplished everything on your list (I am very much a list person; maybe you have another way you tackle your tasks). It’s time for some self care. If you are a woman, then maybe this means makingContinue reading “Friday Glee: October 23, 2015”
Monday Inspiration: September 28, 2015

This week,Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: September 28, 2015”
Reflections Before Bedtime #41
By: Gabriela Yareliz “I am poor, but if I see eggnog, I will buy some.” It’s night. There is a full moon covered in a frosting made of fog. 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”
Friday Glee: September 25, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz I rode the train with a precocious child. He kept asking a bunch of questions, like which trains arrived at what station, and why certain tracks were higher than others. He was probably five years old. Then, when he arrived at his stop, he reached over and grabbed his mom’s hand andContinue reading “Friday Glee: September 25, 2015”
Bar Trip
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s a tradition, I guess, that frustrated and relieved law graduates take a trip after graduation and after taking the bar exam. Many go; whether broke, well off, employed, unemployed– August is jet-set time. I got lucky that I got a special gift from above (after all, the Bible says all goodContinue reading “Bar Trip”
